is it physically impossible to eat a candy cane without something getting all sticky? either you take the wrapper off and eat it, then your fingers get sticky. or else you leave it on and the saliva gets inside the wrapper and it's all gooey inside, or at least your mouth gets all sticky. ah holiday woes...

here's something fun. it seems that our popcorn string, in spite of its being elevated from the floor, is still fair game. we have a mouse living in the tree, eating the popcorn string. ordinarily, mouse presence in the house is met with swift and merciless action, but come on! it's christmas! the mouse's presence has provoked mixed feelings among house members: some advocating its demise, some protesting for its survival. it's not pretty. there is a trap by the tree with a piece of popcorn on it, but this mouse hasn't been fooled. personally, i don't think one little creature stirring (even a mouse) on christmas eve is that bad.

damn, i just got an email from my pchem prof that if i do my extra credit lab my grade will improve. now i have to do it. grr. oh well. i need all the help i can get this semester. (that's what i was debating before, whether or not to do the lab)

fun holiday mp3s of the day (i gotta catch up):
corky and the juice pigs : christmas dreams (not that good, but kinda funny)
barenaked ladies and sarah maclachlan: christmas medley (god rest ye merry gentlemen/we three kings)[the bnl live version is good too.]

ed: i'm pretty sure we caught munchie relatively soon after christmas, but the tree stayed up until about saint patrick's day. -9/5/06
