michael bublé, i will fall in love with you this christmas.

so obviously i've been listening to michael bublé. so get ready people.

1. this song

i can't help it. it's adorable. it's about christmas. michael bublé is asking me to fall in love with him this christmas slash kiss him on this cold december night. he doesn't have to ask me twice. just sayin.

2. I'M DONE WITH MY LINGUISTICS PROJECT

I AM SO HAPPY I COULD DO SOMETHING REALLY CRAZY. but instead i got a soft serve ice cream for 25 cents at macey's tonight when we went grocery shopping. it was delightful even though it is freezing. (for all of you who aren't from utah...i would like to clear something up for you that confused me for months. macy's without an e is a department store. macey's with an e is a grocery store. just so you know.)

3. did i mention that i'm done with my linguistics project?

because i am. and i am so happy. happy happy happy happy happy happy happy happy happy. that was a monster of a thing.

4. my cracked corn back

today i'm grateful for the cracked corn bag my aunt carrie made me last christmas. i love it. i swear my bedroom window doesn't close all the way because i can feel the air coming in. i don't understand it...because it looks closed. i'm not crazy, i swear. anyway. i'm grateful to have abe lincoln (that's the cornbag's name since it has stripes and stars on it) today.

5. lotion

because this is utah, the air dries you out. to the point where your knuckles crack and your lips get chapped and it's just not fun. but hallelujah! someone was intelligent enough to invent lotion. and i am forever in their debt.

so there are only 3 more days of class. which means there are only 10 days until i go home and 19 days until christmas. somehow i think my math is slightly off, but i'm too tired to figure it out. good night!

oh, and ps, can we just talk for a second about how amazing my friend april is? she and her family have become a foster family! i read her blog today and definitely teared up a little bit. (i'm a tender heart, okay?) she has been such a great example to me over the years and she continues to amaze me!

here's her blog: funky vintage kitchen. check it out!
