Toss up between AbFab & Christmas

Ahhh yes, a new blog. I'm starting it out in the best of ways - drinking an obnoxiously large glass of wine and watching AbFab. Can life be any better??

Christmas is quickly approaching us {hooray!} and I'm soooo far from being ready it's not even funny. I'm not sure what orifice I'll be pulling the green papers from to buy presents but I'm thinking that no matter what, it'll hurt. I've also vowed that if I need to put up a faux tree YET AGAIN, I'm buying the black one from Target. While searching Target.com for the tree my dreams have been crushed! It is $399.99. The upside to this is that it has FREE standard shipping {way to go guys}. But look at these stats! I can so justify it {in my dreams}:

57" wide base
1024 tips
500 clear plug-ins

Sounds like some kind of kinky sex toy. And to top it off - it's a cashmere tree!!! For that price I better be able to wrap my naked body in it and wear it to work. It cannot be gift wrapped. That's it! Not buying it {ok I wasn't really anyway....oh woe is me}. So back to the quest for a tree. Donna is helping me look.

Donna: (6:51:40 PM): ok - i found this ad on freecycle that a church is
giving away FREE LIVE TREES, but had to reply for more info..............will
let you know - my luck it's in the state of Washington or something lol

LysInTheShadows (6:54:12 PM): i think some center city allentown church did that
last year

LysInTheShadows (6:54:38 PM): you probably have to be willing to go in the line of
fire or own a bullet proof vest to pick it up.

Take the above conversation as Berlin is *not* traveling into the ghettos to get a christmas tree. I will make Eli stand in a corner and we'll decorate him instead!

So the quest continues... in the mean time - back to AbFab & wine.
