In which Erin gets domesticated

[pride_of_erin]

I made my first ever gingerbread house today! Of course, by 'made', I mean 'assembled it from a kit'. Because just mixing up the icing was far too complex for baking-gene-deficient me - I had to separate eggs - yee gahds!. Anyway, it turned out pretty good for something my younger sister and I constructed on my cramped bedroom floor. We also made a gingerbread train, but haven't decorated that one yet, because we ran out of icing. Shall do it tomorrow, after work. And then I gotta work again Wednesday. Thursday brings more Christmas shopping and finally getting my hair done (my roots are hideous!). Working again Friday. My favourite brother flies in from Queensland on Saturday (so excited to see him!). Sunday will be insane with last-minute preparations, and then it's Christmas. Twenty-four people will be crammed into our house, all expecting to be fed, and plied with gifts - I'm exhausted already!

And I've got to thank the anonymous person who put the virtual gifts on my profile page - yay! Prezzies!

And I think (think) my muses may have made a comeback - a little fic is a-rattling around in my brain and..... well, we shall see what happens.
