Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I had steak yesterday -- filet mignon and grilled shrimp. It was very nice.
Right now, however, patty and coco bread. And maybe nap. Whyever was I up at 4 this morning? Considering I had to teach at 9:30 (and even unconsidering) unwise move.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
swoops Kristin up for the Snow Tango of Icy Delight, and heads out onto the frozen lake, scintillant in the dying light, following a trail of skaters carrying flaming torches. We make it across the lake without falling once, finish with a dramatic skid and I dip Kristin's head until her hair snaps through the snow bank. Then we have mulled wine and retire to the large fireplace in the lodge.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Clay in the Manger: The pagan feminist agenda of stop-motion animation holiday films.
Taken together, the three films represent the strangest and least preachy of Christmas specials, empahsizing "moral values" like acceptance, gender equality, diplomacy and respect for nature. They take the Christ out of Christmas, substituting warlocks, adorable baby animals, show tunes, magic and goddesses, and focusing on progressive and inclusive ideals, so that everyone from heathens to god-fearing Christians can delight in the wonder of stop-motion animation.

I am worried I am going ot be stuck at my parents for another day, and my catsitters were going to go away today and just leave extra food for my cats, since I would be back tomorrow night. What if I get stuck and the poor putters are abandoned.

Don't worry, Sue...I'm sure it will be okay.
iPod disaster has been (mostly) solved. Never-used desktop with huge external drive just became Home of the iPod and iTunes. My laptop will simply have the (fewer) MusicMatch files, if I want to use them, but since I have a nice pair of traveling Bose speakers and a dock, I won't even need to worry about the laptop. I'll just hook the iPod into the speakers and poof--music.
And yes, I am buying a PowerBook eventually. I have accepted this. It just can't happen until I make some money on the side here. Because...when the choice is "have money to travel with older laptop" or "have shiny new laptop but no travel money", there is no contest.
Btw, Hec, MWAH! for that Dorothy Hamill moment.

Meanwhile - wheeeeeeee! Off to Egypt tomorrow morning! Haven't had anything like long enough back in Blighty, but c'est la vie. Have spent obscene quantities of money on books and DVDs and CDs which aren't available in the Egypt. Am v. chuffed with Santa-given and self-purchased booty. Go Team Christmas!
NB - are there any non-Christians who actively get offended about being wished a Merry Christmas? 'Cause I'm all 'Merry Christmas' gal, despite being (a) not Christian and (b) living in a Muslim country, and I've been cheerfully wishing Merry Christmas (or Kura Sanna W'inta taib, ie 'Happy Festival!') to all my Muslim mates with gay abandon, and been Merry Christmassed by them. But I know there are people who are much more intense about religion, so - any of y'all actively offended by it? Or know anyone who's actively offended? Just wondering. I'm little miss Trying-To-Avoid-Packing right now. Yes indeedy.

Happy Birthday Theodosia, Jesse, and Rayne!
The steak was excellent. Everybody should have steak today. Maybe with martinis.
Hmm. My favorite local restaurant happens to have $15 steak specials on Sunday nights. And cheap Bellinis. Coincidence? I think not.
Hope everyone is having a great Decompressing-from-Christmas-Why-the-Hell-Is-Everything-STILL-Closed?!? Day.
