Christmas is Near and an Unexpected Blessing

Are you all ready for Christmas? I am but I'm not--if you know what I mean. I'm excited about giving and getting presents and egg nog and all that but I haven't quite finished my Christmas-gift-making/getting. AHHH!!! Before December is over, I need to eat some egg nog ice cream from Braum's! Or else I may go completely mad!

On another note, yesterdy, I went to Mardel's to use a giftcard I got for my birthday--thank you, you who got me that if you're reading this. I got several CD's, including "Wake Up! Wake Up!" by Everyday Sunday & "Southern Weather" by the Almost. They're awesome!

Something unexpected (thus the title of this post) happened at work today. (Before I get into that, I need to tell you that not only do I seat people but I also help bus tables. Some servers make a big deal about the fact that I actually do my job--that's exactly what they've said, too. Apparenly, not everyone helps like I do.) This one server--who shall remain nameless but still lovely--was so appreciative of me today that she gave me some money! It made me very happy.
