Watching: Typically on Mondays we watch Talking Dead, but since the end of last night's Walking Dead was a bit...emotional,we opted to watch it last night instead. So in the spirit of the season, we are watching National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.Much like Planes, Trains, and Automobiles (watched it Friday!), it just never stops being funny.

Reading: Still working on The Bible Tells Me So by Peter Enns, which is enlightening, challenging, and surprisingly down-to-earth and funny. When I finish it, I have a stack of Christmas magazines to look through and the final book in The Giver quartet, Son, waiting for me at the library.

Listening: A couple of weeks ago, I bought the new Pentatonix Christmas album on a whim, and have basically listened nothing else since. Well, well worth the $6 on Amazon. White Winter Hymnal is my absolute favorite song, which I hated the first time and now listen to on repeat. Hard to not love it when the girls try to "do" the song as it is in the video:

Eating: Anything but turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, noodles, and pumpkin pie. There's a reason Thanksgiving feasts happen but once a year.

Nervous: About tomorrow. Last week was the worst week I've had at work since losing my job in Nashville. Lots of disappointment, frustration, and tears at my desk, as well as a few ugly crys in the bathroom. As of Wednesday, I was told the situation causing so much heartache would have resolution by Monday, but Josh and I took today off to get some Christmas shopping done...so now I have to wait until tomorrow morning to find out what happens next. And depending on what I find out tomorrow, Wednesday could be nerve-wracking too. I apologize for being vague, but hopefully all will be clear (and well) soon.

Wearing: Jammies :) But today, I did score a few good deals, and am, as such, quite thankful for Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales for the hasn't-forgotten-what-it's-like-to-live-on-a-grad-school-stipend-and-is-not-willing-to-pay-full-price-Amanda. A couple of my favorites:

Glittens from Old Navy. I have a horrible habit of losing my gloves every winter, but I'm hoping the cheerful color helps me keep better track of these. Plus I could wear them at my desk since it is never warm in the office.
