Hi, guys!
I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving, with plenty of food and family. Did you go out and about for ‘Black Friday’? I hate shopping, (!!!) so I spent the day scrapbooking with my mom and girlfriends in San Diego—so much fun!! I’ve been friends with these 3 girls since we were children, and it has been such fun to see them all grow & start their own families! I love to hang out with their kids & talk with them for hours. I am very thankful for their friendship!! 
I’ve also been listening to a lot of music this week—latest find: Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michelson (both of whom I love!) teamed up for the beautiful ‘Winter Song’—I was so excited to find this! Been listening to it a lot tonight, also Dylan’s ‘Shelter From the Storm’—do you think I’m craving some winter weather, perhaps?
Wishing you all a happy, healthy December!!!
xo,
Autumn

Dont know if you’ve tried the songs of Natalie Imbruglia,cos I’ve no idea if they are pop or not in usa.
Oh,forgot to introduce myself.
Well,I’m just one of those millons of fans of yours,and living quite far away from your country.
Leaving a footprint here,and all best wishes to you.

Autumnnnn!
It gives me lots of happies on a Saturday morning stuck AT WORK. =( But, I’m really glad to hear that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Mine was…a little weird. We actually celebrated it on Wednesday because my Aunt and Uncle and cousins live in Florida and they had to go to my uncle’s parents in upper Alabama Thursday. So, I was told that we would be eating when I got off work at 4, so I went straight to my grandmother’s and…everyone had already eaten!?!? Bah. Thursday, of course we ate left overs. I usually will eat the left overs for like a week LMAO. I’m not complaining at all, mind you. It was jst chaotic. I’m the oldest out of all the grandchildren, a lot older, I’ll be 23 in january and my oldest cousin is 15. SO, they were all over me and asking me really weird questions and it’s cute that they look up to me like that. LMAO. Cool that we both hung out with the kids! 
Hello! Really glad that you blogged
YOU HATE SHOPPING?! WHAT? Well, not that I blame you. Especially on Black Friday. I didn’t go. No way. I went ONE year and waited in line for THREE. HOURS. And swore never again. I hate crowds and I can’t sit still for long. So, no way. I’d rather pay full price for something than to fight the crowds for it. MY grandma got knocked over one year so I definitly stayed home. Actually, yesterday I had to work. I’ve had to work every day this week. I even got called in on THANKSGIVING DAY. I need to learn to say no. They take advantage of me. Bad. If you hate shopping I might have to re-think sending you your Christmas gift. O.O Crap. Um, too bad. You’ll have to enjoy it atleast for a day
Hahaha. Awe, I’m definitly going to Download those songs when I get home because you and I have a lot of the same music taste. (Yay Regina Spektor!) I’ve been listening to: Almost Lover by A Fine Frenzy, Winter by Joshua Radin, and The Story by Brandi Carlisle. Love love love. I’m very much into the Christmas spirit. I really want to decorate my apartment and go ride around looking at all the Christmas lights =) Maybe I’ll do that tomorrow on my one off day!
Sorry I wrote so much! Hope it kept you entertained! Have a fun December, Autumn!
xo,
Alicia

Autumn!
I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed your Thanksgiving! My Thanksgiving was over a month ago, but I didn’t really get to do anything special. T_T Scrapbooking sounds fun and a great way to spend some time with your mom and friends ^^. I should get back in to it sometime.
I haven’t scrapbooked since… a year ago in my Family Studies class! :O
This probably sounds pretty dumb, but what is Black Friday? I’m guessing it’s an American thing because I’ve never heard of it until now. XD I’m not a shopping fan either - even though I seen to have the hardest time ever saving money. -.-
I also checked out the songs you reccommended! Winter Song is an especially nice song - I enjoyed it! ^^ I can’t believe it’s already December! Where has all the time gone? O.O I’ve been getting into the Christmas spirit already by listening to Christmas songs - which is actually pretty uncharacteristic of me.. but I can’t help myself since Connie Talbot released a Christmas album. ^^
Anyhooo ~ enjoy your December!
Take care, ~
Amanda

ciao sono un ragazzo italiano,ho capito un po di quello che hai scritto ma non tutto, dico solo delle cose che non centrano, ho visto tutte le puntate della quarta stagione di di oc e volevo dire che sei bravissima.. che emozione che sarebbe se proprio tu leggessi un messaggio che ho scritto io.. mi faro risentire, magari con un dizionario di inglese a portata di mano anche perchè non penso che ci sia qualcuno che parla italiano…
va beh ciao ciao
