So before (e:libertad) left to Florida for the holidays we exchanged our gifts. I definitely got way better gifts than I gave this year! I got an amazing beach bag from LLBean. I seriously have been wanting a nice beach bag forever and I think this one will really do the trick like no other. He also got me cards against humanity which I cannot wait to play again.
I got cellphone batteries which is super awesome so you can switch them out when you don't have a chance to charge your cellphone.
One gift was more of an investment sorta. He got me this complete dinner/serving set of rooster themed stuff. It is like cups, mugs, dishes, bowls, servers, like the whol complete set. It is pretty neat but I don't know that I would use it all the time though I really love some of the serving pieces. The thing is he bought them for me from a thrift store after he saw them but didn't think of them as a gift originally. he figured they are probably worth more than the $40 they cost at the store. We looked it up and it seems like for the entire set we could sell it for like $800. THE THING IS i really want to keep some of the pieces for seving ware. But (e:libertad) has very strong emotions about keeping the whole set together. Either we keep it all or sell it all as a set. I can't decide. Like it is really cool and maybe I would use some of it sometime, but it really is so much stuff we don't really have room for and money is always nice. I wish I could keep just some of it. We will see, no need to decide right now but I really like how some of the pieces look!
AND THEN THE GIFT THAT EXCEEDS ANY OTHER GIFT! THE SNOWMAN NATIVITY SET! I may have previously written about a $2000 nativity set I wanted but this one I think i wanted equally and it is only $7. I saw it in a catalog and really wanted it and (e:libertad) refused to let me get it but then he suprised me and got it for me for christmas! it was amaze balls! i love it!
Here are some pics.

Trip to BostonSo this weekend I am leaving half way through work tomorrow to drive to Boston to visit (e:Maureen). It is the longest I have ever driven by myself but it shouldn't be too bad , it is only like 7 hours. Hopefully it isn't a terrible blizzard where i die in the car though. I looked into flying but it was too expensive last minute (espeically because I just got new tires on Tuesday) and a lot of the flights had layovers which are stupid and I hate flying especially with no flying happines remedies on hand. I am actually sorta excited about the drive, I can just play my music and sing my little heart out for 7 hours! I do enjoy that! I just wish the trip was a little longer instead of 3 days but work is just to cray cray right now for me to be gone any longer!

Mob WivesSo I watch Mob Wives off and on but haven't seen it in a wihle. It is pretty amaze. I mean a little redic like if you are in the mob aren't you supposed to keep it a secret and not do a reality show about it? Anywho most of them are daughters of mob people so I guess it makes more sense. Anywho one of the main characters on the show is Sammy the Bull Gravano's daughter Karen . He was the guy who was like a mob boss who turned informant. Well this new season a girl from the Philadelphia mob family whose husband just got arrested and whose father in the law was murdered by a hit put out by Sammy the Bull has joined the show. And like she comes on and is all I hate Karen because her father killed my father in law blah blah blah fmaily drama. But anywho, she was all I will never be in the same room as Karen, I hope I never ever run into her.......SO YOU JOINED A REALITY SHOW THAT SHE IS ON! That seems like a great plan for avoiding her. So fake. i don't care though I will still watch. I love Big ANG! nothing will ever be as amazing as Big Ang! I WANT her to be part of my life so bad. Come on now, that fake tan, those fake lips, those fake boobs, and that voice...ooh that voice. LOVE HER

Never watched but it does seem like they could see something they aren't supposed to and that could make them (People who film it) a target and also if a case is being made the government could force them to give them everything they recorded ......

Yeah, can't fall asleep for a while - those are nightmare-inducing lips. What is wrong with them? Is it a birth defect that I shouldn't be making fun of?

From a recent interview:
.......
From what we see on the show, your personality is larger than life. How much of this is real and how much is you putting it on for the cameras?
Ang: All of it, it really is all true stuff. I am like that.
Jenn: One hundred percent. *I don’t think Ang knows how to be fake.*
Ang: That’s me every day. That’s been me my whole life. Always working in bars, you have to have that personality all the way.

B CupAs some of you who were over for dinner the other day noticed and as some of my friend's at work have pointed out, I really am breasty lately.I have no idea what is going on , I mean I am a little heavier than I was before but have not really gained much weight but whatever weight I have gained is in my chest. I really think I must be well on my way to a B cup at this point. It is out of control! I need it to stop. Maybe if i keep jiggling them they will lose fat?

Days of our LivesEJ: You won't even give my sister a chance. You are always going to hate her.
Sami: Well let's see. She tried to kill my mother. She broke my step brother's heart at the altar by raping a priest who happens to be MY TWIN! How am I supposed to get over that!
Oh how I love the drama in Salem!
