2001-12-14 - 9:13 a.m. lick my lips, i'm desire...I'm having a seriously evil urge this morning...it may be due to the wind rattling my windows...or my hangover from last night's Xmas party...or it just may be 'cuz I have the day off...regardless, i have somehow caught the holiday shopping fervor. I know, I said I wasn't going to give out gifts this year. And I asked people not to give me anything. But it's all gone to hell. I've had friends and colleagues tell me directly that I'm getting a gift if they have to hide it in my handbag to get me to take it home. And I woke up this morning with the urge to run around on the Haight snapping up silly presents for everyone I know. Help me stop the madness! The only thing I have working in my favor here is it's cold outside so I may not actually leave the house until I meet up w/my friend (the one I went holiday shopping for myself with) for dinner and drinks. She's taken up drinking as a hobby for the holidays. Normally, I don't encourage such things, but since I'm in training for my holiday travels, I can't resist a girl's night out. In reflection, I realize what I like most about the holidays really *is* all the holiday parties. I love to dress up in a beautiful dress, wear my hair down, drink free cocktails, and chat up a million new people I'll never see again. I'm sure partygirl can relate. I also realize these parties are way more fun for me as a single girl than they were as half of an established couple. Flexing my flirting skills with people who don't know me is good -- and there's always the possibility of meeting a cute boy with whom there's a spark. That's why I've agreed to attend a full slate of 'em on Saturday. Given the friends involved, I expect to not see my kitty until Sunday afternoon. He's going to be pissed.
