Okay, I'm on the plane now. I'll stop pouting. And read or draw.
Oh, Pacey! You blind idiot. Can't you see she doesn't love you?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm watching people on TV make cookies and cupcakes, and now I want some.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Thanks for the detailed Christmas report, billytea! Glad there was more win than fail. Your parents' gift reminds me of the desk set that wanted to fly in Dead Poets Society.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Love the Christmas report, bt.
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate!
I am currently curled up on Juliana's sofa,under the Jack Skellington blanket she gave me, wearing the fuzzy hat msbelle made me. It's a pretty darn nice way to start the day.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have Doctor Who on the TV, and bagels boiled and baking. Not bad.

Merry Xmas, guys, from Iowa. We've been here since Thursday, and I am ready to go home tomorrow. D's stepdad is generally a nice man, but he loses his temper a bit, and has said some things to his wife and D's brother that I was NOT comfortable with. I am ready to go.
I guess a LOT of relatives are coming over tonight. Being around 4 adults and 2 kids for 2 days has made hermity me twitchy enough; I may lose my mind tonight.
But it's been doable. M has been very excited for his presents, and D and I got a KitchenAid stand mixer from D's folks, which is wonderful.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Love arugula! Did you know John Larroquette's surname means arugula? You do now.
Glad most folks (that celebrate it) seem to be having a good Christmas. I hope it shapes up for those for whom it isn't behaving.
I had a helluva time sleeping last night because if I slept in a way that was took my RSI into consideration, it was bad for my back/hips. If I slept in a way that took my back/hips into consideration, it was terrible for my RSI. I tried MANY different positions. Which would sound fun if I wasn't talking about sleeping...
Consequently I'm up earlier than usual for me. I put the finishing touches on my gift wraps, then went downstairs. No one was up. And my dad is normally up and around by 7am. This is my first xmas here in maybe 15 years. I don't blame them for sleeping in. My mom was probably up late wrapping stuff. And the entire brood will descend later today and the house will be bedlam, so it's best to save their strength.
I took advantage of the emptiness to slip my presents for my parents under the tree. Then I heated up some chicken broth since I'm trying to stick to a liquid diet for at least a little while longer.
Then back up to my bedroom. Not only do I want to avoid the bedlam, I want to avoid other folks just to reduce my chance of getting some sort of cold/flu right as I need to have my voice in good shape.

We are up and have done stockings and presents. The kids are happy. CJ ended up with a bunch of shirts (Hero of Canton, DeLorian crashing into the Tardis, I Void Warranties, Evil League of Evil...), Kelly got the things she had asked for (makeup brushes, waterproof snow gloves, a trp, and I got some wonderful slippers, some clothes, and an electric tea pot.
The kids loved the photo books of grandma. They will be heading over to KCD's place soon for second Christmas.
