Away We Go

Ted and I watched Away We Go last night. It was good but not quite as good as I had hoped. John Krasinski played his character very well.

A Whole Lotta Shopping At Vons

I received a $150 Vons gift card from my company today as a thank you for my hard work during the year. It's a bit random to get a gift card to a grocery store but I'll take it. $150 is $150.

Food Bank Santa Barbara County

This year my company is working with the Food Bank of Santa Barbara County for our holiday service project. After we collect food donations we will volunteer at the Food Bank packing boxes of food for families. A very worthwhile service project.

Santa Is On His Sleigh... I Mean Motorcycle...

And polar bear and he is in a hot air balloon. I didn't know Santa had so many ways to get around.

VSP

What is this you ask? Why it is a cloth to clean your glasses and sunglasses. My company's vision carrier sent a ton of them to my office to hand out to employees so I snagged a few for Ted and me.

Stopwatch

Every now and then Ted receives tchotchkes from vendors he works with. Today he gave me this stopwatch he received. This may actually come in handy one of these days.

Champagne

This is the first bottle of champagne I've ever bought. I purchased it as a thank you to my co-worker Dan for inviting Ted and me to the UCLA vs. Arizona State football game. Thank you Dan!
