Presents, Memes, and TMI.
The Redheads and I all went to the mall last night to buy each other presents. You see, we were all too poor to buy anyone else presents, which is why I made three pounds of soap and we threw a holiday party instead. So we got to the mall, had a bite to eat, and went our separate ways. Me. In a mall. With a new paycheck. It was so hard not to just focus on a new wardrobe. :) But we reconviened as the mall closed, went home, and switched presents. The best part was how we wasted no time wrapping things, so this should be our new tradition.
I gave Rac a pretty pink princess-type shirt and matching dangly earrings for her trip to Australia, and Heather gave her Bush's Sixteen Stone, which she's wanted more or less forever. And that I want to copy to my computer. :)
I gave Heather an adult-ish layer shirt that shall forever be known as "boobie shirt!" and a cream and a mini of her favorite sugar scrub from Bath & Body Works. I even grabbed a sugar scrub for me (Sandalwood Rose,) 'cuz guhhhhh. Mmm. Rac gave her Homer Simpson slippers and Spree candy canes.
And as for me, I got Buffy season 4 for us to watch over January Term, a cool little candleholder, and a Bettie Page poster to adorn my walls.

Heather's original 100? "I do not enjoy the sounds of sex coming from Christina's room. Especially when it's Mike I hear..." Which brings me to my next topic...
Mike asked for "something juicy to read at work" today. This is a revision of the statement, "Do I get a congratulatory post or what?"
So. I totally called in a booty call last night. Because otherwise, I would have been sitting in my grammar final, squirming away, thinking about a solid spanking. And it was ohsogood.
When he walked in, he was all, "It's raining. And foggy. And I live 45 minutes away. Turn over, you're not going to be able to sit down tomorrow." And I was all, "Oh please, sir, can I have another?"
I'm so dominant in day-to-day life that sometimes, I just need the shit smacked out of me. In a controlled setting, and by someone I love, mind you, but still. I got a good drilling for about an hour and some change. I'm surprised we didn't crack a bedboard. Lalalala.
The funny thing is that I'm never the one my apartmentmates hear. They always manage to hear Mike's grand finale, which is admittedly, hella sexy for me, but I can see how someone would catch a gigglefit.
So mmmm, thank you Mike. Love you. And I can now concentrate on studying. :)
And now for a little cramming...
