Oh goodness Epic, best to your mom and family.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

I'm the first one up here. I should take a shower now while I have the chance I guess.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
In my parents' town, on Christmas Eve, they decorate the fire truck (we've got just one fire truck) with Christmas lights and one of the firemen dresses up and Santa and they drive slowly around town with the siren going with Santa waving to everybody in their front windows.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Happy Christmas morning (well, it is hereabouts)! I woke up at gawd awful am and, as I'm sharing my niece's bedroom, crept downstairs to sneeze and snort without waking her. Besides, her room, while a fine example of a teenager's bedroom (and shared with no complaints, at least in my hearing), is sadly lacking in coffee. It's now about 7:30 here, still full dark outside, and the only light is the Christmas tree. Very atmospheric.

Merry Christmas!
I'm about to dress and head out to my sister's. Was supposed to go last night but too sleepy. Also, I thought it was a two hour trip, but it's more like three.
Everyone enjoy the day!

Separately, all good thoughts your mom's way (and your family and you, too), Epic.

Epic, I hope there was no major damage from your mom's heart attack.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, Epic, I hope things turn around quickly.
Insomnia again. At least this time I can take more sleep meds in the middle of the night. And now I'm poking at very slugging Intarwebs. Yuletide fic, maybe.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Merry Christmas, Buffistas!
(If you don't celebrate Christmas, have a merry one anyway. It's a long weekend, people!)
I'm waiting for my parents to get here so we can go for some dim sum. I want DUMPLINGS.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Mom~ma to you Epic. That sounds scary!
Happy Christmas to celebrating Buffistas! I have to say that my best present so far is the memoryfoam mattress topper I got myself. I woke up with almost no pain and I slept almost straight through the night (I had to get up at 3 am to pee)
