Cookies, birthdays, cute boots and what makes me happy: It's Fill in the Blank Friday!

Birthdays are stressful.

Three birthdays were this week, so all the celebrations were kind of little throughout the week - and coming to a big culmination this weekend.  Dinner, potentially super formal, activities, parties, drinking...it's going to get down.

Or at least get fun.  I question how this will affect my damned NaNoWriMo novel (current count: 3547 words).

But anyway, what are your guys weekend plans?

Join the fun here!

1.   My favorite thing about this week was/is    that it was filled with things to do but was not overly stressful. Good hanging out watching old movies and passing out candy on Monday, fun music making at a practice space on Tuesday, finally beginning NaNo-ing Wednesday, cupcakes and friends Thursday, more writing and friends-ing Friday and throughout the weekend  .

2.   Colder weather makes me   excited!  It means holidays and family and fun! It's also my favourite kind of weather: that crisp air that requires boots, cardigans and scarves, that makes the tip of your nose freeze     .

3.  Three things that make me terribly happy as of late are    IMs with best friends who are far away, leg warmers (not quite San Diego appropriate, but still), and really really amazing books. I've luckily been on a streak of brilliant novels   .

4. If I could only wear one kind of shoe for the rest of my life, I'd choose   boots. Cognac, below the knee, slight heel, probably a buckle. Always cute!   .

5.  My personality type is   something I don't remember from that Personality Test, but it was basically and extroverted introvert haha.  How about we say I'm a Pisces? Because even though I'm not positive I believe in astrology, I am a token Pisces woman .

6.  I have a serious problem resisting     cookies. I keep baking, and then friends give them to me, and family buys them, and it's just a sugar smorgasbord.  We currently have nutella cookies, m&m cookies, chocolate chip cookies, sugar cookies and the ingredients for dark chocolate mint choco chip cookies in the house .

7.  My favorite color to wear is   shades of grey. And black. Lots of black .
