Oooh, good gifts. I saw a clip of Vice that was demonstrating Christian Bale's disappearing into the role. Technically impressive, he sure did disappear, but not something I need to see.

I don't have any, Laura! I decided on an espresso sized cup of coffee for now and grabbed a packet on instant cider to add hot water to in a little bit.

Laura that sounds like a fantastic day.
Happy birthday, Jesse!
Happy birthday, Theo!
We had a great xmas eve dinner with much laughter, and a lovely xmas day.
This morning I made waffles for Matilda and Emmett as they cuddled on the couch. His mom's about to collect him, and then he's off to Tahoe with his friends for a few days.
A very successful, happy, lovey xmas holiday.

FYI, the espresso cups that Starbucks is selling as ornaments hold less than 4 oz

That seems like it should be enough for espresso and yet 4 oz just doesn't seem like enough coffee on principle.
I am about 88% better from my cold but I am still waking up with my mouth tasting like the inside of Santa's boot. I've been gargling with salt water to kill it off.
In other exciting news, my debit card was compromised which I did not learn until I tried to buy papertowels yesterday and had to leave it all there at Walgreens and call my bank.
Now I have to get a new card, but it also means that things rigged up for automatic payment on that account now have to be re-done as well. What a pain!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Blasphemy! And yet, many espresso cups hold only 2-3 oz. As if anyone would ever want a SINGLE shot of espresso.

Ugh, Hec, such a hassle!
The department Keurig's smallest setting is 4 oz! Woes.

Happy birthdays to Jesse, Rayne, and Theo!
I'm supposed to be working Wed-Fri this week, although I may take a vacation day on Friday because things are very slow and I have little desire to do anything.
I've also had a little too much family togetherness, and thankfully my mom and dad were both out of the house today for a few hours so I could get some introvert recharging time.
In other exciting news, my debit card was compromised
Boo, hiss!

Timelies all!
Happy Birthday to Theo, Jessie and Rayne!
