today was Christmas at manda's house. first i had to go to marching band rehersal..bleh! but then i got home and we ate dinner with my grandma and grandpa (and my other grandpa got to come:)!) so we ate a dinner of spadinis and lasagnia (if you couldn't tell my family is italian), and then we opened presents which was a lot of fun. i got the josh groban live at the greek cd/dvd which i'd be listening to now if i weren't too lazy to go downstairs and get it. ****went ice skating at steinbergs tonight w/ my brother & his gf and my sister & her bf....irronically enough they're both from eldon..hmmmmm. it was an outdoor rink - would have been so romantic if there weren't so many people around and i had someone to be romantic with. ******i'm now obsessed with a new artist..damien rice - you guys have got to check him out. he's the one that sings that song that goes like "can't take my eyes off of you" from the new movie with julia roberts and jude law. he's amazing...AND his songs use a lot of cello (drools implausibly). i'm beyond excited. somebody get these mr. goodbar bites away from me before i eat the whole bag!!! God bless u guys..i love you mucho. hope your christmas is as fun as mine was! *manda*
