Bah! Missed an update!
Oy, I missed a day of updating and it absolutely destroyed my popularity standings, I'm now 126th and Arcadia is 114th. Things are not looking good.

AND YET IN THE END I SHALL WIN!

Somehow....

*stretches* Eh.

Yesterday was taken up by three things: Mass, shopping, and our Youth Group Meeting.

After Mass yesterday, I helped out at a Bake Sale that benefited my Confirmation class. I was one of the few. I left there and went to Coffee and Donuts, where I had a cup of tea and a donut, and read store circulars. When I finished, I helped clean up and put things away. Then I went to various stores and the mall with my sister to buy Christmas gifts for people.

Stuff I got:

Two boxes of Whoppers for Jess, my older sister. I hope that I'm remembering correctly that she absolutely loves them, it would be a shame if they were only a "nice thing" to have.

One mug with the name "Tim" written on the side of it. That's for my older brother Tim.

A Harry Potter calendar for my younger sister, Emily.

A Spongebob Christmas book for my little brother, Michael.

A Christmas Card for my dad, I hope that I can find something else to go with it...

A Christmas card for my grandparents. I think they've got enough "Best Grandmother" and "Best Grandfather" mugs and accessories over the years.

A bag of Reese's Christmas Trees for my mom; she loves Reese's anything.

I'm being decidedly cheap this year, as I don't really have all that much money to spend. Almost all of my money went to buying my laptop; the very reason I had saved it in the first place.

Well, my bank account does have about $150 in it, but that's because my dad covered some of the cost of the laptop so that I could actually get presents for others. I need to pay back that money eventually, so I'm not going out of my way to spend it.

People I still need to shop for:

Nona, my other grandmother.

Dad: He really deserves something better than a card.

Christina: I don't know yet what I'm going to get her, but I'm thinking about delviering it to her on Christmas day. She lives about a mile away from me, but her house isn't too far out of the way of my regular walk. I think that it would make her feel very appreciated, as she should.

Victoria: Need to get something for her. Jess has already gotten her a gift and delivered it today during Victoria's lunch period. And I really need to get her something, since she came up and asked me what I wanted.

Tyler: Heh, he told me he wants NeoPet's cards, so that's what I'll get him.

Paul: *teeters hand back and forth* I don't know. We haven't actually done anything together in a while, and I don't know if he expects anything or not this year. I also don't have the faintest idea of what he'd want.

Sandra: My aunt. She'd freak out if I didn't get her anything. She's spoiled and lives too close for me to simply not get her anything.

Can you believe that I've actually got homework that I could be doing? It defies reason, or something. :p

Boba: I warned you, too much sauce and the quesadizza will lose consistancy and be very difficult/sloppy to eat.

As to how I thought of them, there isn't really much to it. I was hungry, so I looked in our fridge. We didn't really have much, but we did have shredded mozzarella and grated cheddar cheese. An idea began to form in my mind, I walked to the counter and there was an unopened bottle of marinara sauce. I looked around for English Muffins to make mini-pizzas with. None.

"So much for that idea." I thought.

Then I spotted the tortillas. We had had fajitas just a few nights ago and had some leftover. I opened the bag and took one out. I placed it on the baking pan, and the rest is history. Quesadizzas were born!

I had another one tonight, and it was still good. I ought to try making other new things. :D

Hmm, can't think of much else right now, I'll probably update again later with news about today.

Arcadia must fall. :p
