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.
Buffy: You tossed that vamp like he was a... little teeny vamp. Riley: You wanna go again? C'mon. I bet this place is just teeming with aerodynamic vampires.

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.

It's never lupus, Hil's Mom. It looks like it, but it never is.

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

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.

“Not dead yet!”
We had the holiday meal on the early side this year, which, in my mind, is absolutely perfect as it allows time for naps before true dessert. (We had brownies that we made for Santa that were the teaser dessert.)
The sweet potato latkes were a MONSTER hit-- soooo good and I think I've now been requested to make them for any and all holidays, whether they involve oil or not.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
one of the things I got Matt was a level 6 'fiendish Japanese Pocket puzzle'. He has been playing with it while video chating with his family. Solved in two hours. It was supposed to occupy him for days.
