Merry Christmas!
If the holiday were a competitive sport I'd say Scrappy and Matt are in a dead heat.
Casper and Dillo look so freakin' cute!
For those keeping score at home, Emmett's tux looks awesome.
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Minnesota Supremes Shoot Down Crucial Coleman Lawsuit, Making A Franken Win Nearly Certain
Simply put, Coleman is in very big trouble right now. With Al Franken leading by 47 votes, this lawsuit was Coleman's best shot at coming from behind. And it just failed, making a Franken win nearly a foregone conclusion when this recount finishes up in early January.
Late Update: The Coleman campaign's lead lawyer Fritz Knaak says the court's decision today "virtually guarantees that this will be decided in an election contest." So say hello to some messy litigation. But at the point where we go into an election contest, the chances of a Coleman victory are really slim to none. And with any luck, Franken could be seated by the Senate, at least provisionally, in time for the session to begin.

Merry Christmas, to all Buffistae who celebrate!
I am reading Yuletide stories (14,000 words of Masqueraders fic! o/) and thinking about getting dressed and heading up to my sister's house where we will do presents. Soon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I am listening to friendly squabbling between my husband and my in-laws. I'd rather be reading yuletide.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm lying in bed, reading Yuletide and eating leftover Thai food. My mom's trying to get me to be social and watch House with her, but I'm tired of being social and need some alone time.

Hee.
It seems like she's given up on getting me to be social. She switched over to the Radio City Christmas Spectacular.

Elevenses has turned out to be mimosa, pate on french bread and more key lime tart.

Leftover Thai food is yum. I also had a bit of leftover Chinese food, and tonight we're going out for Indian food, so I'm getting the whole Asian spectrum.
I haven't yet had soufganiyot or gelt this year. I asked my dad to get me a jelly donut when he went to Dunkin Donuts for coffee this morning, and he returned with a croissant. Which is good, but not a donut.
