i'm dreaming of an o-house christmas



pre-preface:
i want everyone to know that this blog post was written days ago. i've tried posting it multiple times, but my technological incompetencies have gotten the best of me. and so i'm making one more attempt as i sit alone at the o-house, missing my roommates and hoping that landlord dave doesn't burst through the door and see me without pants on.

preface:

i’d like to clear up some confusion caused by the last post. becca melvin’s ex-boyfriend “stu” is not a real person. stu is short for studio, where becca spends 97% of her time. hence the joke- "oh becca, are you going to hang out with stu again?" this was explained in an early post, which apparently not everyone read. my apologies to becca and everyone who thought that she was really dating someone named stu (which is an awful name. more of a thick soup than a name, really).

making Christmas lists has been all the rage at the o-house recently. i’m not going to post everyone’s list, obviously. but if you’re shopping for abby, just look at your grandma’s list and buy something from that. if however you’d like to save time/money and buy something for the house as a whole, please check out our collective list:

1. stairs that don't creak, a driveway that doesn't suck and a heated kitchen floor.
2. new house crushes. it's been awhile.
3. a studio so that becca can work from home, a library for abby and keira and a swimming pool for everyone else.
4. a remote for the dvd player. or batteries for the old one.
5. an alarm system: something really complicated with codes to push in and fingerprint scanners and a direct line to the riley county police department.
6. tickets to see oprah. duh.

7. a basement heater of which anthony fox and all of our dads approve. unlike his little guy:


8. permanent custody of toby.
9. shacker beds for everyone!
10. cooking lessons, or even better- a personal chef. here's why:











well, there ya go. merry christmas to all. see you next semester!
