So -- family is here, after a comedy of errors at LAX that involved playing "Spot the Jamaican" (which is something I
think
I'm good at, and then I spot an actual Jamaican) so I could find out where all the other Jamaicans were (they didn't come to their projected terminal, but instead the Bradley one. HOW WAS I TO KNOW???? Apart from spotting Jamaicans, I mean.
But they're here, and my once-tidy apartment is a mess, though having my mother ask if I'd had someone in to clean it means I win.
Now I just have to talk my father out of buying me a gift today.
Lee, did you get my comment about Ohio?
what did you end up getting for your father, ita? no Burke Williams, right?
Also, I think you left your cough with me. I'd like to give it back to you, please.
before everyone is gone...
Merry
Christmas
Buffistas!
what did you end up getting for your father, ita?
Not a damned thing. He hasn't told me what he wanted, and I've told him that unless he comes up with something better than my idea, Santa has other things to do.
I think you left your cough with me.
Nuh-uh! I still have mine right here. You must have stolen someone else's.
damn. I'd like to return the cough I have. Delsym doesn't help. Neither does Tussin. But theraflu knocks it (and me) right out.
Stupid cold. Makes it so I can't scuba tomorrow.
Timelies,
I still have to wrap all my presents yet. I suck at wrapping. And I just now realized I never checked my supply of paper, bows and tape from last year to see if I needed to buy any more. Here's hoping I don't have to brave the madhouse for a roll of tape or something.
At least I don't have to have anything wrapped until tomorrow morning. The name I pulled for Christmas Eve at my grandparents' was my brother's and he's currently at boot camp. Since the base is just down the road, my parents are "adopting" him from the Navy for Christmas, so he'll be able to celebrate with us tomorrow for something like 10 hours before we have to return him. Which is good.
But I really should start wrapping in the near future.
Lee, did you get my comment about Ohio?
SA, I did see that one, last night. I am not sure when my big arbitration is going to be, other than in March. If it is before your spring break, it will definitely work to go during your break. I will find out as soon as I can.
