In an attempt to no longer be known as the girl who cried "I am leaving now" (but who doesn't actually leave for 30 minutes), I left my desk at 4:30 this afternoon, and was in my house by 5:15. I would've been home sooner, but I spent a good 10 minutes gabbing with a co-worker before I actually got in my car.

Yes, I slept like a baby yesterday. Yes, I am hoping that I'll be able duplicate that tonight.

But, before all that can happen, I must wrap gifts. Or put gifts in bags. We'll see what's what, then get everything squared away for the giving portion of my holiday season, which commences (and ends) this weekend.
