Friday Flotsam

FAH-RAH-DAH. That’s “Friday” in Bev speak.

I’d like to start this flotsam by showing you this lovely little Christmas village. How about, it’s made of CHEESE. You either just got extremely hungry, or extremely grossed out. I didn’t make this cheese village, no way. Lord knows I don’t have the patience for something this detailed. But it’s pretty amazing, isn’t it? Yesterday I got to star in three Youtube-style episodes for a very large cheese company. I got to play an actual character! A little loony, a little zany, a little cheesy (don’t punch), and a little weird. I can’t wait to show you.

You on the other hand, aren’t so sure.

Okay, so noooooow where are you on your shopping? We’re done! All except for a few stocking stuffers and we.are.done. Do you stuff stockings? Tell me what you put in them. Because I’m always like, “my stuffing RULES.” And then I hear about pearl necklaces and trust funds and I’m like, oh.

I do cutesy stuff, like (good) chocolate bars, tea towels, mini quiz books, lip gloss, that kind of stuff. It’s good stuffing, right? I think it’s good stuffing.

Do you want me to stop staying stuffing?

STUFFING STUFFING STUFFING.

I’m stuffed.

I spent the majority of last night boo-hooing over Jessica’s brand new baby boyyyyy! I had money on it being a boy. Well, mental money. She texted me earrrrrly yesterday morning with the news that they were in the hospital and she was already at 8cm. All day long during the shoot I kept stopping the crew, “hold on I gotta check and see if she’s had the baby!” I didn’t really do that. Only three times.

The funny thing is, two days ago Jess was like, “ohhh the chances of the baby coming soon are soooo slim.” Aaaaaaand he’s here. And he’s perfect! And I’m crying again. Just go look at that face if you’ve not already seen it. Ugh.

So Aaron was so thrilled about me making fun of him last week for his fossil hunting, that he’s requiring me to show you his finds, to prove that he’s not a total nut case. So I present to you, his fossils. They look like rocks, yes. But if he were to show you each little crevice and line of this previous life from 5 hundred billion years ago, you’d a) yawn, and then b) be actually a little impressed by it. Fossils are weird. That was LIFE. Isn’t that creepy? It’s like a mummy rock. In a way. Never mind.

So that’s all I have for today! But first, tell me what Christmas movies you’ve been watching, what cookies you’ve been eating, and if you’re blanketed in snow, or if it’s 90 degrees where you are. I have to know these things. Before I fossilize, myself! Waaaaah.

You’re still disturbed by the cheese village, aren’t you?
