Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

If I was winning the LDB game before, I just lost it so hard that I've already forgotten the time before LDB.

My presents are all wrapped. We decorated sugar cookies yesterday. Extended family Christmas is in an hour. I sincerely hope nobody tries to talk politics at me. My dad's already spouted enough FOX news talking points that I may try to choke a bitch.

Productie day thus far.

Church, BK, home, made ornaments with child, got out more decorations - cleared living shelves and put the decorations out. I am missing one nativity scene, not sure where it is.

Still more to put out, but taking a break and going through more old cards. I had old received Christmas cards in at least 3 places! it will not be a small amount of paper getting recycled this year after I am through. I am torn about picture cards though.

Oh no, Cash. I'm sorry. I hope the drugs work wonders and you're home soon.

I have been to three grocery stores (Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Kroger, which was the worst), managed to get mr. flea out to the music store for last-minute guitar strap and picks (Casper got a guitar from my brother) while I kept the kids busy at Trader Joe's). We've been building the enormous lego sets (we have a cave troll!) my brother got us all day. I need to bake a genoise tonight, I think. But right now I am very tired, and all I did was shop. I tried to be very considerate to all the poor people actually *working* in groceries today.

Found the other Nativity, along with another box of ornaments for the tree.

I am trying to figure out how to arrange the 2 Nativities, many many angels, a vintage plastic santa sleigh with reindeer, some christmas trees (3 glass, 2 tinsel), and an elf.

I have 2 shelves cleared.

I think the answer is to clear more.

This room is still a cluttered mess.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

My Christmas tragedy doesn't compare to Cash -- we had to shut off the gas to the fireplace because they're smelling sulfur upstairs. Slightly less merry, but I guess those kids deserve to have Christmas too.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

What the fucking hell, football. AUGH.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am torn about picture cards though.

Yeah, I've kept those. And select nice ones -- last year, I hung a ribbon across my mantle with old cards on it, and just replaced them as I got new ones. (I can't believe anyone sends me a card, since I never send any myself, so THANK YOU to people who do!)
