Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

You are a dear, msbelle

My people are very food focused, so baking is surprisingly effective when it comes to creating Christmas cheer

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I always get my dad and his wife each something smallish (this year an artsy calendar for her & DVDs for him), then I get a groupon to a local restaurant for them both.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am opting out of the department White Elephant exchange because gift giving is stress I don't need at the moment.

Y'all, I am so excited to have two days with no work, no rehearsals, no time commitments except to myself. Now curling up in bed with Popeye's and a bottle of wine and not leaving until the sun is up tomorrow!

Did my annual buy-every-bath-bomb-at-LUSH for the SIL. My car smells like a Lush now. Found her some fancy sheets, too. As I drove by the Senator theater, waved to the stormtrooper hanging out front.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think I'll go to a SW showing in a couple of hours. Looks like I can get a good seat. Mac has no interest in SW which I view as a parenting fail.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

So I'm taking Mr. S out of his car seat, when I notice his shoes are off.(not unusual for him) I am only able to find one shoe. I look around, but only one shoe. Gary goes out to have a look around, and lets me know the side mirror on the passenger side of my car is broken.(The mirror itself is intact, but the casing is gone.) Joy.

I will bring the car into the dealer Monday morning.

Also, we are not going to get to see The Last Jedi this weekend, as Gary's mom is out of town this weekend. Maybe New Year's Day we'll see it.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Sheryl, what a pain those side mirrors are. Did you ever find the shoe?

I'm always perplexed when I see solitary shoes of all sizes by the side of the road. Something is stealing our shoes.

It's the single child-sized mittens in the grocery store parking lots that I feel sad about, because kid probably dropped it as he was getting bundled into the car and mom won't notice till they get home and she demands to know what happened to the other one.
