Matt totally buried the lede there!!
I had people over—mostly my close friends, just a handful of others. Max was probably 12? But they left before 1am but are coming back for breakfast in the morning.
Yes! Ohmigod! Someone's blondie bear's a twenty-question genius!

I think Matt buried the lede there.
My thoughts exactly.

Eh, not really newsworthy except for being the first time since before Thanksgiving. But for that I'd have been more excited about the sushi dinner.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!
It is 8° here with a wind chill of -5°. I know I'd been pining for winter for about 6 months, but that's just a bit excessive for Arkansas.

I said this to my mother this Christmas, "I just moved back into my house on Monday, and I have two children and it's exam week and I have a full-time job. You are retired and have very few commitments. I am not going to do your Christmas shopping for you."
Note the Christmas shopping was ONLINE. She wanted me to go to a website and order something and she'd send me the money.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all, and Happy New Year!
We went to dinner with a couple of friends, then came back to our house and exchanged gifts. They left for another gathering not long after. Mr. S was in bed, so we started watching a DVD.(Austin Lounge Lizards 30th anniversary concert) Another of our friends showed up with his out-of-town friend. Chatting and snacking occurred. We finished watching the DVD in time to watch the ball drop on tv.
Got woken up this morning by Mr. S who had climbed out of his crib, opened the door to his room and went downstairs, where he grabbed a bag of snack food and started munching. Welcome to our life.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Oh Mr. S. is it time for toddler bed?
Who is doing work so that tomorrow is not a nightmare of epic proportions for year end closing? This girl. To be fair I did ZERO work on my "work from home day" on Thursday 12/28. So some if this should have been done then. Thank goodness none of it is thinky work, just running reports and filling in spreadsheets, then paying invoices.
Also cleaning off my TiVo waiting for the Rose Bowl parade.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm probably going to do some work today. Might as well, because god knows I am not going outside today, where the HIGH is supposed to be 8 degrees.

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.
8 degrees sounds positively balmy to me right now.
Happy New Year!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I need to clean my apartment some, but a lot of what I need to do is bring stuff out to the trash and recycling containers outside, and outside is just not going to happen when it's three degrees out.

Happy new year! Today's big task is getting the tree un-decorated and put away. No idea what the temps are outside, but I won't be there for long today. It's sunny. I foresee a nap in a sunbeam for me this afternoon. (2018 resolution—adopt as many of my cat's good ideas as possible.)
