Timelies all!
Work let us out a few hours early. In a little while we will head to a friend's party. She's calling it ISS NYE, and it runs from 4-10, with New Years at 7, when the ISS observes it. (She retired from NASA Goddard last year.)
Or maybe you could just be Buffy, he'll see your amazing heart, and he'll fall in love with you.

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

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'm doing something similar, Sheryl. Except I celebrate with the British. Same time, though.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's very clever.
I like black-eyed peas and have some in my freezer that I will cook tomorrow. My plan for today is to pick up Chinese food, make sure I have enough cat food for a few days, then laze about noshing out of take-out containers and writing out plans in my bullet journal until I feel like going to sleep (probably way before midnight, but who knows?). I may open a bottle of bubbly, I think I have one lying around. My gym is, somewhat surprisingly, open tomorrow, so my ambition is to go to the gym and clean tomorrow - two things I need to make time for in the coming year.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
back to back 4 day weekends is RUINING ME for regular work.
OTOH I have gotten quite a lot done, made decisions about getting rid of several things, and have still done a lot of sitting around.
I really need to make sure I do my work from home 1 day/week thing EVERY WEEK. It helps me so much.

How many hours of sunlight do you get there, Lisa?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I've been stalking your Oslo photos with great envy. What an awesome holiday!

Oslo has good chunk of sunlight, maybe 7 hours or so? We were in Tromsø for the first few days and there is no sunrise there at this time of the year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Whoa. Looks like an amazing trip!!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
back to back 4 day weekends is RUINING ME for regular work.
Totally. Except I had to work today and am not at all sullen about it. I made sure to email my boss before I logged off to show how industrious I'd been today.
