Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
No turkey here because I don't want to have to cook one. There will be ham and there will be salmon.

Xmas is done for the year. Manic tearing of presents and ritual sacrifice with pie, done. Now is the turkey turpor, loosening of the belts, and playing with new toys.
And napping. Always napping.
We went to the retirement community's Christmas/Holiday dinner, which was very nice. The people who run this place do a very astute job of figuring out how to bring people together -- over food, and good food at that. So an elderly person is much less likely to go without human interaction for more than half a day, and there are plenty more opportunities to be social and pursue hobbies and crafts. Also, there is a member-run library at each center, and a consignment shop, a beauty shop, bank and so on.
For the evening, my mom borrowed a cat from her friend, in order for a) the cat to get a treat and b) to give my mom something to fuss over, so that she's a little more distracted from going into a funk over I've Sold My Only House And Now I Am Homeless At Christmas. Getting some help in getting the apartment properly set up is also helping, on my part....
Loaner cats are a thing of genius, and gives old cats a purpose in life when they're not so up for being cute. Warm, fuzzy, purring lumps go far to brighten any occasion.

Did it break you, and did you have to go all the way to the Grove?
Did it break you, and did you have to go all the way to the Grove?
It didn't break me. so much as make me limp. Every single frame with Heath Ledger in it was so terribly terribly sad.
And no Grove! Went to the new-and-improved eerily-empty Century City mall. Almost stayed for Casanova. In fact, I might eat and return for the 4:55 showing.
