ACCOUNTANT BY DAY

My parents gave me nine seasons of the X-Files on DVD for Christmas. This may sound expensive, but it was the Hong Kong bootleg edition. Still, it probably ranks third place in the scheme of all Christmas presents they have given me, being narrowly edged out by the 1991 purple ten-speed and the My Little Pony double whammy of ‘85, featuring both the Lullabye Nursery and Baby Buggy. I found some of the miscellaneous bits and pieces of those in the basement the other day and got all nostalgic, so my roommate and I are considering collecting My Little Ponies.

My boyfriend gave me a tiny pink Beehouse teapot that he had lied to me about earlier when I’d seen the little box and asked if it was my present. It is the most perfect teapot anyone has ever seen. I’ve never witnessed a more pleasing teapot. Even the inside is beautiful. I drank six cups of tea today, I loved it so much. Been peeing ever since, too.
