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

Timelies all!

I'm out of Whamageddon, too. With Xmas music playing in the lab every day, it's not a surprise. I'm not sure if I've heard the original, but I've definitely heard a cover.

Thrive to spite them

I haven't been listening to much Christmas music. They don't play it at work I haven't gone many places besides work and I avoid the 2 radio stations that have gone 24/7 Christmas. One before Thanksgiving

To be fair, I do think the Bing Crosby-David Bowie version is kind of lovely.

I honestly thought "When did Bing and Bowie do 'Grandma Got Run Over'?"

Our wings are not tired.

No surprise, the tree did not get decorated while I was out of town. In fact it was like I was never gone, including the dishes I left in the sink still there.

So I picked up my son and a pizza and he is doing the tree while I supervise. Bad Santa via Netflix in the background.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

covers don't count in Whamadeddon

Good to know! I'm astonished to still be in either game between two Christmas shows at work, Christkindlemarket one block over and shopping district all around.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am home! I was prepared to feel warmer, but it's gross and windy here, and I'm not very comforted by ten or twenty degrees more of heat.

My reward for checking my email tonight was notification of a 7:30 AM meeting tomorrow. For my team to discuss employee feedback.

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

Can you give them the feedback that you have too many early morning meetings?

Live and learn. Will never ask eldest son to help with tree again. First, the non-stop complaining. Second, I will end up having to redo the whole thing anyway. I knew it would have been easier to do it myself, but I didn't think it would be this miserable. Not enough wine in the house for this.

eta: you would think at almost 27 he would be over the deliberate incompetence stage

I drove him home then fixed my tree. Just lights for now. Will do ornaments tomorrow. Myself. Maybe put some more strands of lights.
