Toddson glad you’re doing ok!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
It means iguana drop which is amusing and freaks out the tourists.
It's the spirit of the season!
Frozen reptiles tumbling to earth, that's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
I got all my xmas cards out! Some of you will receive Krampus stickers, and others Vintage Travel Posters (in stamp form) on your envelopes.
I need to do more xmas shopping tomorrow and I'll need to actually get in the car. Bah.
My entire fam is a bit off and wonky right now. Emmett's been stressed and down, Matilda has been sleeping 16 hours a day since break, and JZ has mystery abdominal pains which are putting her off her kibble.
On the plus side, inspired by Kiki's Delivery Service, I've decided (against all common sense) to make a Fish Pie for xmas: [link]
Lemon dill cream sauce leeks and mushroom.
I'm not doing Kiki's Herring & Pumpkin pie: [link]

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Hi Todd!
Well, today went better. No meltdowns. Let's hope this continues, although I only have one more day of wrangling Mr. S for a while.(Gary works from home Thursday and has off from work Dec 23-Jan 2.)

Fish pie sounds great!
I'm invited to my nephew-in-law's extended family Christmas Eve party, which is a seven-fishes feast. I don't recall ever seeing fish pie, though.
Stay warm, y'all! It's been in the high 30s here at night, which is hella cold for us; if it got down into the teens I would likely never leave the house.
I have so much wrapping to do, but I don't know about boxes: I grew up just wrapping the thing, so all my gifts look kind of weird and lumpy.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
Bubble wrap for the lot of you. Pix, I hope that knee heals up right -- reminds me painfully of my left elbow.
Appropriate expressions of affection and solidarity all around, naughty or nice as you prefer. It's been a hard three-years-in-one for so many of us; it gladdens my heart to read about us taking care of ourselves and each other.
Thanks for being here, Buffistas.

::holds thumbs for JZ::
I hope it's something simple and easily resolved!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
It’s been four hours since I got here. Still no pain meds. I know people live with worse pain for months or years; I can’t imagine how.

Got meds, but they wear off every couple of hours.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
JZ and David, I love you so much. If there’s anything any of us can do to help, please let us know. We’re here to help you get through this. I hope that Matilda and JZ’s Mom are doing OK.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ugh, JZ, I’m sorry.
