It is nice to have you here K.
I guess 2008 had to give me at least one more mild kick in the ribs by closing my bar.
On the other hand, I'm done with jury duty.
Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

oh no! I was thinking about you and that bar earlier today, ND, as I passed a lot of closed places on my walk home...

Hard to believe I'd been a once a year regular there for a decade.

Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays to y'all.
ND, while that very much sucks, I see this as a golden opportunity to start a new tradition of your choosing.
And it may be the end of an era but given how bad this year's been to you, a change might be good, yes?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Try an uplifting tradition. Something with Pix? Maybe finding an orchard, some cider, and a couple blankets. I dunno. Sounds good to me.
As I look at my clock, I see, not only is it Xmas in my time zone, but I think all US times zones save Hawaii and parts of Alaska. And I think that makes it the better part of the world. So with that I say MERRY CHRISTMAS! PEACE ON EARTH! And with that, I go to bed.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Merry Christmas! Ho ho ho, and all that jazz!
...although, Chez Jay, it's UnChristmas. I don't think we're doing anything - maybe my mum and I will go for a walk around New Miller Dam or Cawthorne Park or something.
Should probably finish wrapping up presents. Hmm.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Merry Christmas, Bitches!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Merry Christmas, folks.
Ugh. Woke up grumpy. Woke up to the sound of my mom telling my dad to sweep the floor, and then freaking out that he was scratching it with the dust pan. And then she tried to calm down by playing Neil Sedaka's Greatest Hits at top volume. I'm watching the Yule Log now.
