Nice, Matt!
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

Dana, glad you're recovering swiftly!
Sophia, that's awesome that they gave you back the food!
But I'm sick! Boo.
Yeah, me too. I'm taking cold meds, cough drops, and mainlining tea. Boo times two.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
What a great story, Sophia! With a happy ending!
I hope you continue to feel better, Dana.
Dad~ma for Sue. Boo to being sick. Yay long weekends!

Our wings are not tired.
Sweet, Matt! I hope this doesn't translate with having to cram 6 days of work into 4 days.
Break time. I grocery shopped, cleaned out the fridge, put away groceries, cooked 6 pounds of cranberries, prepped and seasoned 3 pounds of Brussels sprouts (oil/maple syrup/ginger/nutmeg/S&P). I think I will prep the broccoli and cauliflower next. That is cooked with fresh basil, pine nuts, and lemon this year. Saving the mass quantity of chopping the squash and sweet potatoes for soup for my son since he has much bigger arm muscles.

Our wings are not tired.
Somehow managed to skip over a bunch!
Dad~ma in abundance, Sue. I hope they can get it under control without surgery.
Continued recovery~ma, Dana.
But I'm sick! Boo.
Boo, indeed. May it pass quickly for you and shrift.
What a great story, Sophia! With a happy ending!
Ha! Love that you got it back.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Consuela and shrift, sick over holidays is no good! Get well quick!
Said Gully Dwarf caught the cats by using wind-up toys that he'd set off near alleys, then he'd bag the cats when they came out to investigate. The wind-up toys were also useful for distracting guards.
That's the kind of campaign I like to play!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no, I didn't send my best to Sue's dad -- I thought it so hard! I'm glad you guys aren't having a holiday tomorrow, at least.
In holiday news, the pumpkin roulade I just made is sofa king good, you guys.

I miss DMing. Dealing with a bunch of people with military experience made it tricky, because they'd always say "No, we're not strolling up to the front gate and announcing ourselves! We're going in over the back wall!" Though one of them did learn that in the middle of a battle is not the time to change your armor and put on the really cool mega-armor you just found, because that causes the DM to grin and say "What's your buck naked armor class? Because a bunch of soldiers just came around the corner."

They gave me back the cat food!
Okay, I was not expecting that, yay!
Thanks for the ~ma. I haven't talked to him, but I suspect the no food will make him very grumpy. I wish he didn't have to be admitted to hospital...they're no place to be when you're sick.

Ooh, that filling sounds delicious Jesse! I was skeptical when I read "buttercream" but mascarpone with sugar and cream and ginger sounds delicious.
