Post #54: sherlock holmes (2009).
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is either turning in his grave, or cannot turn in his grave due to the boner the film has given him. The portrayal of Sherlock Holmes’ character was somewhat faithful to the novels. Of course his attributes were a lot more amplified for Hollywood. Still a good movie nonetheless. Thank goodness they never used the “Elementary, my dear Watson” line....

I’m coming to the very last bit of my lip balm. Yay! I can’t remember the last time my lip balm went into the trashed because it was finished. The fate of most of the others ended in being lost in the laundry.

Post #53: post-christmas silence.
So the tree is down, the presents are gone, and the decorations are put away, sitting in their containers, waiting for next year. Now these things didn’t take up much space at all, but with them no longer here, the house feels much more empty.

Post #52: christmas.
Christmas was originally a pagan festival dating around 4th century in Germany. It was then known as Yule or Yule-tide. It has since been absorbed into Christianity to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, but is also celebrated by people from many faiths. Coca Cola invented Santa Claus (citation needed). Okay, they didn’t invent him, but they invented the image of the red suit, you know,...

Post #50: as told by december 22.
Started the day off by playing tennis with my sister. I felt soo off, even playing against her. THEN, got dropped off at Borders and picked up by the old elementary school friend, Natalie Mabalot! Cool day of catching up. Sumo Sushi, got me a Golden Philadelphia Roll and some Tempura Green Tea ice cream. Thanks Denise for showing me what’s good. Afterwards, watched Princess and the Frog....

On the pagan day of the sun god Ra, I kneel at the foot of an ancient instrument of torture and consume ritualistic symbols of blood and flesh. In other words, on Sundays, I kneel before a crucifix and take Holy Communion.
