List of things (for me) to make sure I include in this. (Note: This will be edited later to include all that I want it to include. I'm about to go to Wal*Mart)

Thanksgiving day activities

• Pretty much what I did for Thanksgiving was this: Battle everything on the ride there to make sure it a) didn't burn me, and b) stayed still enough that it didn't flip of spill over. Eat a nice helping of everything I could eat (which really wasn't much). Play Uno with family. Kick John's ass at it. Look out the window on the ride home. Watch Beauty and the Beast with my sister, make Lasagna for dinner (The actual meal at my Grandma's was more like Lunch), watch random tv with MK till about 11, while simultaneously working on a new purse/bag thing I have a pattern for. Brush my teeth, out by 2.

Kinect Experience

• So John came home today with a Kinect. He actually came in and asked MK and I who was going to buy him the Kinect for Christmas. When we asked the price and he told it to us (150$!!!), we told him that neither of us was getting it for him. So, he pulled from behind the wall (he was standing in the doorway) the box for Kinect. It was... an interesting discovery. He had trouble getting the box open though XD So MK joked that Opening the Box was the first part of the game.

Day /after/ Thanksgiving Day activities

• Wake up, play RDR: Undead Nightmare for hours. Prolly 'round two I beat it. Got to play the game while being (SPOILER!!!!!!!!) Undead Marston. Found, and killed, War. I feel bad for that thing. I lost Death. Who was pretty damn awesome. Once you get Death, people. Do not lose him. You can break the other Horses, but do not let Death go. Out of the ones I've experience thus far, Death is the Best. ♥
• Let it be known that I woke up around 12:30. I got hungry around two. 'Bout the same time I beat the game. So I went into the kitchen and asked my mom when our own Thanksgiving dinner thing would be done (because we always have our own immediate family celebration at our place if we go somewhere else for the actual holiday). Found out around five. So I saw her nommin' on some chips and Jalapeno dip. Stole them. She followed me into the living room though. So she could continue to nom. Stayed with me while I continued to play.
• Switched to Fable III around 3. It is AH-MAY-ZING! I love that game. I haven't gotten too far, really. But overall, it's wonderful. I can't wait till I rule the land. ♥ I'm going to be evil, and then own everything. Then possibly go good. I don't know yet. I might stay evil.

Project Bathroom

• The thing I wanted out of the wall is out. So now I just have to fill those holes in, clean it again ('cause it got a bit nasty while I was gone), and then paint it. ..also have to put in that new shelve thing. But the Operation is back in motion now~

Update on Knitting Desires

• I wanna learn how to knit. When I was in Towson I saw a girl making a Slytherin Scarf (or at least it looked like she was making one) and I just thought it was awesome. So I'm going to learn how to do it. And hopefully get pretty good at it. Like I never did for Crocheting or however it's spelled. My ultimate goal is making a Slytherin Scarf. But for now, I'm going to settle on making smaller things. Like Square Swatches. ...after I learn how to start it and actually continue it.

A list of Gift Ideas for family members

1. For MK: Earrings (got), Donkey Kong, Epic Mickey, Scarf, Pajama Bottoms, Dinosaur Comic Book, a Christmas Ornament, 
2. For Mom: Book (got), Northface Jacket, A Christmas Ornament, 
3. For John: Microsoft Points, Money
4. For Dad: Socks, Ties, 

Wal*Mart/Target

• So I went to Wal*Mart today. I got Knitting needles since I wanted to learn how to Knit (mostly so I can make a Slytherin Scarf (Ultimate Goal)). I also got Earrings for my sister, since they were so cheap, and she told me she wanted them for Christmas. So she won't get them till Christmas even though she knows she is getting them. I also went to Target today as well. Night Shopping is so much better than day shopping.  We decorated a Christmas tree while we were there. It was a tiny little thing. Absolutely adorable. A 2 foot plastic tree. 9$. I recommend you buy it. And then buy the collection of larger than normal baubles and other ornaments for it. Because it looks best with giant ornaments on it.
