Happy birthdays! And a Karl drop-by...
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

Happy Boxing Day to you all, thanks for the good wishes, plus the start of Hanukkah And Kwanzaa! It's a holiday quad-header!
I did nothing on Xmas, didn't have energy to make any plans, and no one tried to offer any, so a day home was OK. I binged on the first couple of seasons of Ghosts (US), which I have to say holds up really well.
Getting my license renewed couldn't have been easier -- in fact, the T dropped me off about 40 minutes early. I went to the AAA office downtown in Boston, which lets you make appointments, they had all my info queued up. I had to go in person because my picture and signature had to be refreshed -- I'm not sure how long it's been since they were originally taken!

Now tagless for your comfort.
EM made a full tenderloin with a horseradish sauce, and a very rich pot of creamed spinach and I made Au Gratin potatoes (Comte, Sharp Cheddar and Gruyere). Best Au Gratin potatoes I ever made.
DH made a tenderloin for Christmas Day. It was exquisite.
Yes Crema sounds like the Puerto Rican Coquito that I make and love
Is this similar to horchata (Rumchata)? Because I love anything creamy.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Lots of people making and selling Coquito in my neighborhood and in all kinds of flavors. Yum.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
At work. Feels like Monday, but I know it’s Friday.
Down is up, up is down.
The week of 1/6 is going to seem like the longest work week ever.

Truer words, msbelle
Had a real hard time remembering that I actually had to wake up and start working this morning. Somehow yesterday was easier, but today I'm apparently all "working again? But I just did that yesterday!"

That is 100% how I feel about doing the dishes now. Which is why I got Popeye's last night.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Due to only having one car now, I'm waiting for husband and chilling at the dining area of the local giant grocery store that also does prepared foods and stuff, and I was fine with that until I started smelling garlic bread.

Mm, garlic bread
