OMG, I just made a chicken pot pie for dinner, and it took for-fucking-ever. Sorry parents! Dinner will be late.
Spike: I'm not a monster. Xander: Yes! You are a monster. Vampires are monsters! They make monster movies about them! Spike: Well, yeah. Got me there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Den is almost ready for the tree. Paperwork has been filed away. People are fed, and I just got out of a desparately needed shower. There is much left to do, but at least some of it is done. (There, that's me trying to see the glass as half full.)
Pix, I'd love to see you too. Maybe I should get my act together and invite the LAistas over at some point. Er, in late Jan or Feb? That's about my time frame. Except I need to see Kat sooner because COAT!

Is Christmas really going to be Weds?

My mother keeps saying, Christmas comes whether you're ready for it or not.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Some is good.

Like Winter. ASoIaF was not kidding.

I can't even find the glass.

{{hugs for you}}, Ginger.
Me, I made some Mark Bittman butter cookies, but I'm a bit disappointed in them. Still, it was enough to fill a little tin, along with ginger snaps and snicker doodles, to give to a friend I'm meeting for dinner.
I went for a run, clipped the dog's nails, made cookies, and did the dishes. That's enough for today, right? Possibly not, but instead of being more useful, I'm listening to the Bridge School Benefit and poking about the internet.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

We just drove home from the lovely festival of lessons and carols at the Episcopal Cathedral downtown singing Hark the Herald Angels Sing with added lyrics about toe cheese. The choir was really good - definitely a professional-level group rather than "anybody from the congregation can show up." And the toe cheese is one of those "only in my family" things.

I don't think I want to know about toe cheese!
My sister and I made a whole bunch of cookies. They are delicious. For dinner her husband heated up pita and chopped up carrots and celery, and handed us hummus. And some deli turkey. And her cat is stalking me to lay on my chest, possibly in order to better steal my breath/soul.
But, y'know, good times.
