We had a beautiful day here, above freezing, sunny.
I bought more ornaments at the fancy decorating store's boxing day sale.I may have an ornament problem, but as problems go, it's not that bad.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

The one thing I miss about working at the Waldenbooks I used to work at was that the mall also had an Irish store that would put its Waterford ornaments at half-off the week after the holiday, and I bought several over the years. Beautiful, and still way too expensive at $25 each, but I love them.
My favorite new ornament from the past two years (I didn't put up my tree last year) was the wooden one I bought at the South Carolina Artisans Center about 20 months ago. It's about 5 inches tall and beautiful in its simple lines. I'll have to take a picture of it tonight and link to it.

You are all failing to keep me entertained.

I got in so late last night that I have gotten nothing done today. I'm wondering if I should just call it a day and head home. There's practically no one here all week anyway.

We also got in late last night, which is probably not helping me.
The irritating guy who sat next to me at the charging station was playing WoW on his laptop. Is that really what that game looks like? It seemed kind of...the graphics didn't look that sophisticated.

I am contemplating calling in and taking tomorrow as another vacation day. I'm not mentally prepared to go back. My boss is off, so whose there to say no?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Crud -- I meant to go to Crate and Barrel to spend my Xmas gift certificate on holiday clearance stuff. I hope they still have a good selection by the time I get there! Maybe tomorrow. My office is back open, but I already have morning plans, and no work to do, so. My morning plans include going to the Mapparium with my dad. I'm excited!!

How tall is Rahm? I have no desire to F Bill Clinton, but given that I'm 5'11" I find the idea of men shorter than 5'6" or so to be a little offputting. (OBVIOUSLY one Ms Barack.)
