Soooo Ms. Griesmyer assigned a big ol' timed write to do. Yay! 
Sike.
She told us she wanted us to set aside 40 minutes, without interuptions or distractions or anything of the sort, to complete this timed write. Well NEWS FLASH... it is Christmas time. No interuptions? No distractions? Who is she kidding? There are TONS of stuff to be done around Christmas time. You'd think she'd know that. She probably does know, she just doesn't really care. I haven't written two whole paragraphs without having to do something Christmas related. Don't get me wrong... I love Christmas time (granted there is too much stuff to be done, but it is always a fun holiday). I just hate timed writes.
Well, off I go to finish this wonderful timed write of mine.
