TOMORROW. WHEN I COME HOME FROM WORK TOMORROW, I WILL HAVE A NEW PHONE.

*dances*

... er, yes. So I did the math and with all of the overtime I've been doing and will do, it turns out that I could get the same phone that my brother just got with part of this week's paycheck. And it can still stay on my mom's contract, since she gets a fantastic discount and it makes absolutely no sense for me to get my own contract, and she doesn't even care about paying for my cell phone bill because it's THAT low no matter how many calls or texts or emails I make. And I had her cancel my landline, too, while we were talking about it today while I was on my break.

PHONE. Phoooooooooooooooone.

Ooo, ooo! You know what I found out today? I found out I work with someone who writes Harry Potter fic, and is doing NaNo as well, and is just as far behind as I am.

I would totally be reading some of her fic right now, too, except ... um, yeah, I'm really far behind where I'm supposed to be. But new fic to read this weekend! *bounces happily* (Er, sometime after I catch up, of course. Stupid NaNo.)

There's part of me that really wants to do that holiday wishlist meme, because it's always fun to write wish lists, but the only ideas I've been able to come up with for it are "I'd really like as many people as possible to join the National Bone Marrow Registry and see if they're eligible to donate!" and "I'd really like Amazon gift certificates so I can put 'em towards the netbook I want!", and the very obvious disparity of intentions between the two holiday wishes kinda makes me feel like an utter shit.

... but, yeah, go see if you can save a life this Christmas. I can buy my own damn netbook. I can't give everybody who needs a bone marrow transplant the marrow they need.

Thanks for phrasing the bone marrow donation as "if you're eligible". Most people seem to put "everyone should do it!" and there's a lot of us who aren't eligible and never will be. I can't give blood, either.
