Now tagless for your comfort.

Also, that unicorn doesn't have a horn. At least, not on its head.

Please pass the brain bleach.

My twin sister, who is recovering from her miscarriage gets to referee a Christmas gathering for our family. The big issue at the moment is wondering if the mother of one of my nephew's four year old girls will have lifted the restraining order against the other mother of his other four year old daughter before bringing her to my sister's house for the party.

Did I mention how glad I am we're not going?

Teppy, I hope the snot beast can be vanquished. I have a head cold but OTC meds are controlling it.

I am working today, but they're letting us leave at 3. It's dead quiet, and it looks like the Internet filters have been pulled.

We're going to cook at home tomorrow, and try to see Sherlock Holmes. I'm kind of glad that there aren't any family togetherness expectations. My middle sister's kids are going to her house in Pennsylvania, and she's very excited--she's the one who ended up with the maternal instincts of the family--and her pleasure pleases me.

So Happy Yule and Merry Christmas and best wishes of all the other holidays out there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The really nice guy who always talks to everyone just came by and wished the Indian guys happy holidays and me a merry Christmas. Little does he know they plan on working all week.

God, my head hurts. I'm calling in a script for the semi-effective painkiller I think is not covered under my new insurance. Now I need to check pharmacy hours so I don't get there too late. Totally worth paying for out of pocket.

Trying to work out when this weekend's ER visit will be. Eat sister time? Wait until the morning she leaves? Will I make it that long? Will Boxing Day morning be heavier traffic? Will I be past caring?

That took all of 10 minutes for him to open everything.

How are you doing with the change to your Christmas?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ita - not my best Christmas ever, but I am making do. I have Christmas music on and I am playing with him for 10-15 min at a time, then breaking to do something around the house. Right now I am listing books for re-sell on Amazon, might as well try to make some cash and decrease things in the house. After books comes two Duplo sets. If any b.org parents are interested in the duplo sets, I'll give you a great deal + shipping.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I wrapped five or six presents last night, and it was positively exhausting.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Scotch tape is my nemesis.

I'd gladly let the robots take over the world as long as they wrapped our Christmas presents for us.

Wait, do you suppose monkeys could be trained to do this?
