Thanksgiving and such

tsukinofaeriiBecause I completely failed at Internet this weekend, d'oh! (facepalm) Quick Recap:
Thanksgiving went... well, it went, and the less said about that, the better. *sigh* Family wank was avoided, but only because Certain People didn't come over to visit. Papa was upset. :\ However, the turkey came out wonderful, if I do say so myself. :D Jace is feeling better, but I'm still keeping an eye on him. He resents his iron supplements. Plans have been consistently made to get some Internet Shopping done, and Internet Shopping Shall Be Done. I also need to make my Holiday Card Post. (makes mental note)
Friday was spent Being Lazy, notably Being Lazy While Sort of Cleaning, playing Final Fantasy XII and insisting that This Weekend I Shall Bake Cookies. (Hint: The cookies are a lie!) Evening was spent window shopping with Cousin Devon, because I was broke until today. I saw many things I want, including a PSP and this game to go with it. >>; Because buying a system for one game makes lots of sense.
Saturday was devoted to Yiazmat. No, I mean that pretty literally. I got up and went, "I know! I'll beat this boss in the first half of the day, then spend the rest of the day baking cookies/writing". FAIL. GIGANTIC FAIL OF FAILINGSWORTH. I knew Yiazmat would take a while, but fourteen hours WTF SELF? By the time I finished beating it, I collapsed in a puddle of exhaustion and proceeded to dream about video game characters. First, I was Balthier (?!) exploring a Final Dungeon with the other characters. Then I woke up, went WTF and went back to sleep only to be Mario reaching for those damn mid-air coins in a water world. Woke up again, repeat WTF moment, thought "at least I wasn't jumping through hoops" and... next up was Sonic and jumping through hoops. (headdesk)
Sunday was devoted to Things Around The House. A little of this, a little of that, and a lot of crawling through storage and discovering dead mice. Ick. Writing was self-promised and utterly failed. I wish I knew why. :\ I'd say "just not in a writing mood", but then I'd have to call even more fail on myself, so I'm just going to own up and say "lazy+procrastinating". I also need to get started on the Editing Of The NaNo. D:
Other than that... well, I'm 2 for 3 in my holiday exchange fics? Maybe I can, you know, accomplish something this week...
