I got stabbed, you know, right here.

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
We need to talk about something. Help!
Have we mentioned that it's fucking cold outside?

Aw. It's damned cold here for Alabama. When I got here, it was 70. Dropped into the 40s/30s (20s overnight and wind) the past two days. About the same as home, but this house does not cope well in those temps. Supposed to be back in the 50s/60s/70s the rest of the week.
Day 1 of making myself ignore work.
I still have a shitload of shopping to do. Should be able to do it in a couple trips, but still. I really fell down on the shopping this year. Seriously. I have ONE thing for my mother, the easiest person to shop for usually. A couple things I wanted to get, I couldn't. Couldn't come up with anything else. Waiting for the boys to wake up, the slackers.

We only had a little snow, but it's blowing a gale. Fortunately the snow was very wet, and it's not blowing around.
I am making cookies from frozen dough, because my mother thought she had chocolate chips in the house, but doesn't.

I'm trying to decide on Christmas dessert. I'll be posting suggestions shortly.

One boy is up. A yellow tree frog is driving a dozer.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
But did you spoil your nephews, Sara?
I got a ton of crap for Kristen's stocking. Stockings are fun.
I'm so freakin sleepy. Don't WANNA go to work. I got up early to go to the gym, and then promptly curled back up in bed for I was chilly and cranky.

Am gonna do my best. That's some of the shopping to be done. Problem was I'd tell my brother "I'm going to get them X when I get in town" and he'd come back with "I just won a bid on X on ebay!" I was about to strangle him. He was stealing my ideas.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Bah. Stupid FedEx. My Xmas present to myself is now not gonna arrive until the 29th.
I ordered it a week ago and it's still sitting in CA.

It was below freezing when I was walking in to work this AM - in Georgia. But I kind of liked it; it feeds the New Englander in my soul. It was 75 and rainy most of last week - Casper wore flip flops and a tank top to school on Thursday - and that was just wrongity wrong and also very unChristmassy.
