Meeting the parents
The bf met my fam during Thanksgiving and although we are also spending Christmas with my family, I’ll be meeting his mom soon (I met his dad briefly a few weeks ago)
Coincidentally I happen to come across this article on glamour.com on making a good impression on the parents: http://www.glamour.com/sex-love-life/blogs/single-ish/2009/12/how-to-make-a-good-first-impre.html

Hope
B: I would love to do 3 weeks abroad again. I don't think I will get another chance at it.
Me: You never know, you might. So what are your plans now that your back in the States?
B: Work on being patient. I did a couple of interviews and am just waiting for more offers.
Me: That's great! Patience is definitely a virtue.
B: You're such an optimist.
Me: Yeah well, hope is the last thing one should ever lose.
B: I have hope but I don't rely on it.
Me: Hmmm...I should be more like you.

There’s something about the time when the end of the year is approaching that leads to lots of introspection. You think about where you’ve been and what you’ve done this past year and the progress and setbacks you’ve had as compared to the year before.

Spreading the holiday spirit:
A couple at a Philadelphia diner paid double for their dinner and asked their waitress to tell the couple at the next booth, “Merry Christmas, that person picked up your check” once they left. The receiving couple, touched by the act of kindness of strangers, decided to do the same and paid the dinner of another couple, and it countinued for hours, and...
Company Holiday Party
My company’s holiday party was Saturday night and let me tell you, I danced my ass off.
My mom, who also works in the company, was getting her groove on just as much, if not more than me. She actually was the one who told me to get up, loosen up, and just dance. She definitely kept the party going, and from 11:30 to 2 am I did not sit down once! It’s the most I’ve danced and the...
