That is odd Hil.

Last night Scrappy emerged from whatever pocket dimension he hid in. I swear we looked everywhere a cat could hide. I'm headed back home today from Matthew's. As soon as I get home I'm taking muscle relaxer. Tonight I get to see E and my Dad and tomorrow we have Christmas.

He heats up all of the leftovers, tries it, doesn't like it, and throws it all out.

Grrrr, I hate waste like that.

Follow up to happily report that #1 son was in good humor and sociable for a very extended Christmas day family gathering. No incidences! Considering his tooth pain I was delighted. We both told him he could stay home or escape to a bedroom at BIL's house if he wasn't up for it, but he socialized with all including tossing football with the kiddos.

Turns out I cast unnecessary aspersions on the kid. Sort of. He didn't want to try it, so he lied and said he did and threw it out. Someone found it at n the garage fridge this morning. A win, I guess :)

Yay! Also, it doesn't work out to try and make kids (or adults) eat stuff they don't like.

E is here and today has been rough I can't leave because I'm still taking msucle relaxers so I can't drive. The house is not sound proofed so I can hear more than I want. It's too small for hour people and then the 2 neighbor kids came over and I about melted down. I did not.

I have mostly survived. But I'm a over stimulated and just want to be alone for a while but I have no idea when that will be this is probably the last time I get to spend with E for awhile and I'm kn my bedroom because he wanted to see a movie and Home Alone got 3 votes so they are watching it and I am not.

I don't like the movie but the last thing I need to watch right now is a movie with so much chaos a kid gets left behind at home.

So I feel like a shitty aunt

We did have our Christmas and that was nice. I gave ideas for Xmas but some how I ended up with the new Harry Potter universe books from my brother. I liked Harry Potter ok but I would have rather had things off my wish list. I'll read them.

But E picked out and bought a nice soap doe me and Dad got me some books I like so it's all good. Mom got me stuff.

I just haven't felt very Christmasy and feeling muzzy headed from the medicine isn't helping. My shoulder feels a lot better.

My notorious RBG got here...she's sitting with action figure Bernie and Warren.(I hope they are like Toy Story and they fix the world while I am in bed at night, but that might be a lot to ask for $20.)

erika, my kitty kept knocking my Hillary Clinton off the TV stand where she was living. I asked the kitty if he was a Berner, but I suspect he might be a Libertarian. Anyway, I moved Hillary to the top shelf of the bookshelf, where she hangs out next to the Farscape action figures. Hilz and D'Argo are pals, which is pretty surreal.

but I suspect he might be a Libertarian.

Isn't Murdertarian a political affiliation?

Maybe a Berner kitty would push her to the left a lot. I would agree that knocking her over is kind of antigovernment. There is something...slightly male-looking about Action-Figure!Ginsburg but I can't put my finger on why.

Ha! True!

I would agree that knocking her over is kind of antigovernment.

It really is.
