Today I was woken up by a guy with a handheld megaphone warning that the water will be shut off in a number of nearby buildings so everyone should make a supply of water (I suspect that water pipes ruptured due to cold). Great. I poured a few pots of water and went back to sleep.
Now, a neighbor came telling that we might have a chance to get gas back before Christmas - the chimneys are not up to current standards and the gas provider won't turn on the gas back until the proper changes are made.
Great, just great.
Hot tea (electric kettle is still working at least), sandwich with sausage and reading Crystal and Lissa congratulations thread lightened my mood, however.
Oh, did I mentioned that today's Dark Heresy session was canceled yesterday?

Boss listened in on calls, I was able to keep my calm for the most part. I'm looking forward to the next Kingmaker session, even though the arrival of the fourth player means the Gunslinger sneaks off on her own mission again. I had so much fun playing that slightly ditzy but very experienced Chaotic Good badass adventurer. So today I just need to get over to the library to return a few books (which I will have to borrow again later for studies) and check in at the bank because 96 dollars had been transferred there for some reason.
My inspiration for my D&D setting has halted in favor of a Fate Stay Night spinoff idea.
Lastly, a friend wants to drag me to the local bar. AGAIN. That guy still owes me 64 euros...PS. Yes, I am making FAWTL status reports. I blame all the Metal Gear Solid Let's Plays I've recently watched for that. XD
Cool.

In other news, after a brief foray into neutrality, my run of awful luck has returned as my bike went flat en route to work today. Walked back home to discover the rim is bent. So that's more money. Also, new phone refuses to attach via usb, as it really REALLY wants to use Kies air. I'm tempted to simply punch a random tech in the face until the phone works like it's supposed to, but I will attempt to give Kies air a try before giving in to frustration.
According to the tarot reading I got yesterday, major good luck is coming my way as Sagittarius had some major bad mojo last month that has since passed. Here's hoping.

incompentence or inexperience by the young doctor retrackting the needle
she should have made Sabine push a swab onto the wound for a few minutes until the bleeding would have stoped, instead she immediately put a swab and a band aid on the still open blood vessel

Finally had to replace my tennis shoes - work finally utterly destroyed them to the point that they kill my feet for long shifts.
With the recent store remodeling, it seems Target (at least the one I work at) has phased out pretty much any decent women's tennis shoe. However, I am stubborn and saw the same brand I usually buy...
So, tl;dr - I have nice little girl tennis shoes now.

I had a busy weekend!
The Christmas party on Saturday evening was less unpleasant than I thought it would be. I actually had a good time. I owe a big part of that to my boyfriend John, who did not let me be a wallflower. I like having people in my life who push me out of my comfort zone.
(As FHDM can attest, I am an introvert who likes extroverts. When I meet a fellow introvert, we tend to lapse into silence, whereas upbeat extroverted types tend to bring me out of my shell in a good way.)
John also brought me a Christmas tree yesterday from his work. It is set up and has lights. I do not remember the last time I had a real Christmas tree. The smell reminds me of my childhood.

Amen. Crappy month. Heh, crappy year for me. At least that means it's easy for there to be improvement.

Birthday's tomorrow, beginning of a new year. And as I said, this birthday's bound to better than the last!
I made an experimental cake this weekend - peppermint red velvet swirl with peppermint icing. As the entire cake disappeared Sunday afternoon...I think it was a success.
