A million things have happened since Christmas Eve when I was whining about ... whatever it is I whine about. I shall begin with the What I Got for Christmas List.

- An adorable little Coach handbag to use for concerts. It's not leather ( which is marvelous!) and it is small and cute and wonderful. Also, a debit card with some money on it was hiding inside the purse. Jim and Betsy are the best godparents/aunt and uncle ever!

- A white scarf with red ends that my grandma made me.

- Two adorably marvelous crocheted handbags from my mom.

- Lots of fun CDs including John Mayer! HOORAY! (This was the ONLY thing I asked for for Christmas ... I gave my parents no other suggestions)

- Barnes & Noble gift certificates which bought lots of good stuff to read and fun music.

- An iPod. Let's pause for a moment and talk about how cool my parents are. As I said before, I never told them anything I wanted for Christmas ... other than John Mayer. I really wasn't expecting any big presents ... but since I'm the only child (who lives far away from home most of the time), they spoiled me. The little iPod is beautiful. I love him.

- Now, for the best present ever ... my mom is driving me back to Boston on Wednesday. This is marvelous. I will be back a week and a half before I was planning to be. We're taking my cousin Jenna with us, which is wonderful, since she's never been on a trip without her family really. This is especially marvelous since I don't have to fly home. Unfortunately, it means mooching off people in Boston for a week. I'm staying one night with Linda ... I'm making Jillian take me out after she gets out of work. Then, I'm staying for six days with Wolf. This shall be an interesting trip ...
