Charlie Brown Christmas is on tonight at 8 on ABC - and there is supposed to be a new Prep & Landing short. Tivo caught Prep & Landing, a new Disney Pixar 1/2 hour cartoon, for us last year and Dillo has watched it approximately 400 times since then. He even now loves Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire, with which it begins
My love for me now / Ain't hard to explain / The Hero of Canton / The man they call...ME.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'll just enjoy everyone posting about their good stuff. I don't have anything to add. (Don't have any bad stuff, either)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Good thing: My sister was the one who suggested we open the TJs fancy pants Joe joes collection, and because she's here (and wants some too), I won't be able to eat the whole thing in one sitting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My boss is deliberately misinterpreting what happened in a meeting yesterday and making me edit the meeting minutes to reflect that. We're supposed to set up a business user advisory group, but he doesn't want to, so he's having me leave that out. Dude, it's going to come back and bite us in the ass. And you better not make it look like it has anything to do with me. Because I put it in.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
ita, do you have documentation of your boss telling you to do that? If so, I'd save it.
Just like that woman at Xerox-PARC who refused to show all their secrets to Steve Jobs until she was ordered to in writing....

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Good stuff: I got a Xmas candy gift from a student, got three new books for next semester approved (I'm teaching The Poisonwood Bible! Which I love!) and just ate a French dip.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I made cock-a-leekie soup and it was so easy and came out pretty damn good.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I will be seeing my last for a long time, possibly ever, of Rage Nurse and Vengeance Doc.
Is Rage Nurse the really evil co-worker you have who says mean things to you? And if not, does your new position mean you won't have to deal with that mean co-worker?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Good stuff: The kids' holiday pageant was today and it was super cute, start to finish. And there was a holiday bazaar outside where I got to buy handmade soaps and a pretty wallet to give my MiL and other pretty items.
More good stuff: I got a yonk of nail polish to give to DH's cousins for Xmas and they are all so purty I want to keep them all, but will happily settle for the two I bought for myself. One's a holo. I haven't tried out a holo yet, so I am looking forward to it.
Less good: I think I have developed a polish addiction. Family members may be staging an intervention.
