Karl, babe... no need to be anxious; think about how lucky they are to see you!(of course, I'm biased in that, as always) Tep, tough break. Shir, we think of you a lot.
Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Merry Christmas/Solstice/etc to all! I'm down here in Houston with my folks and feeling very lucky to have both of them. We've reached the point where more of the presents under the tree are mine for them than the other way around.

Merry Christmas everyone! I got in a run in the redwoods, and a hot shower (how are we so lucky to have hot water on demand, think of that!), and ate a custard bun, and now I'm on my way to my sister's to start working on the turkey.
I do not understand all the people who can spend most of Christmas day reading the Yuletide archive: my holiday is always quite busy!

I have grown older, but not up.
I have made my dutiful Christmas Day phone call, and now if all goes well I won't have to speak to another person until tomorrow. ::fingers crossed::

Turns out this is almost certainly not food poisoning, because now Tim has stomach woes as well. This is probably some kind of gastroenteritis, which blows. We're going to do a drive-by to drop off presents for his family, and then come back home and eat bland food.
We did take Covid tests just to be sure, because Covid can have gastrointestinal symptoms. Tests were negative, so at least we've got that going for us.

Tep and Tim...the worst. Have had a few childhood Xmas ruined like that.

Our wings are not tired.
Ugh! I'm sorry, Teppy. May this pass quickly, so to speak.

It is unpleasant. Do not want.

{{{Tep and Tim}}} I hope it passes quickly

Ugh I was looking at my Facebook memories and saw the year we had norovirus from Santa…hope it passes quickly Teppy!
I’ll be reading Yuletide later, but for now am in the hot tub with a fresh mimosa…
