I suck. And not in the good way.

Dear LJers,
I am such a pig. Yesterday our admin sent out an email, saying that she would be ordering Jersey Mike's subs for everyone who was coming into the office today. I asked for a footlong, because 6 inches is never quite enough (*snicker*). But JM's 'footlong' is more like 2 feet long, and I've eaten half of it, and now I feel all nauseated. Oh, there were also barbecue chips involved. Urrrgh. But at least Talis can eat the rest of the roast beef.
Also, I fully aware that I'm usually a terrible procrastinator, but this year has been one of the worst. As of today, four days before Christmas, I have gifts for exactly five people (one is my cousin, who told me what he wanted; one is my mom, who bought herself something and told me to pay her back for it). I have not written one single Christmas card. Of the people I still need to buy gifts for, I have zero idea what to get them. And I can barely fathom that I will have to pack, put my dog into a carrier, and get him and me on a plane in three days. I feel like I live in some weird dimension where time speeds by me while I'm wandering around idiotically (like some hunter has just used scattershot on me). All right, that's not that different from a normal day, but really, the month of December has been completely insane.
And yet I'm stuck sitting here at work, wondering why the hell any of us are still here, eating coconut Slices that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lissannej sent me. (OMG TEH YUM.) And let's face it, if I weren't here, I would be at home playing WoW, not doing anything actually productive.
The only things that have made me feel remotely Christmasy this year is a) the Narnia movie; and b)starlettegurly's drawing of Draco and Ginny in the snow.
Bah humbug.
Love,
Your friendly neighborhood Grinch
Edit: OMG, I saw another SWERVE van today. It looked like an ambulance, and on it, it said something like "roadside assistance" or something. It is *so* hysterically funny. They even have a Web site: http://www.goswerve.com/!! Their motto is, "Changing the way people drive." =)) I want to meet the founder of that company.
