Happy Christmas!
I am down one laptop, apparently, and miserable about it.
Still, it's good to be home, even if I'm completely useless. Turned out we didn't go out for Christmas dinner, but my mother cooked up a storm (pictures at some point, once I work out which computer does what around here) and I am totally full. And will be forever.
Tomorrow morning we head out for the North Coast, to spend a few days at the beach.
Without my laptop...sniff. I had a neurotically codependent relationship with it. I hope it can be repaired, or resuscitates itself overnight magically.
It's raining again. Hard. I hope all of the recycling we have is actually IN the bin so as not to get all bloated from water.
Christmas was good. We had a long skype chat with my mom and we ate ham and green beans. I feel all sated and fat. Or maybe just fat.
Thank god I went to yoga earlier.
What booze should I use to spike my spiced apple cider?
I think rum would match well. Or brandy.
Rum or Brandy? My family is not picky, so maybe not the best to give advice.
x-post with Spidra.
I don't think I have any brandy, so rum it is!
Perkins, I'm a big believer in spiced rum for hot cider. Le yum.
I'm glad it didn't stop just because I left. I want miss some crap weather too.
Okay, I essentially haven't slept since Friday morning. Lemme go give that a shot.
I had hot apple cider with red wine and it was delicious.
I hope you have a good night's sleep, ita.
Just snuck downstairs to try to get something to eat. Wanted to stick to soup but I needed to get something that didn't take much prep so I wouldn't be in the way in the kitchen. My aunt tried to give me some of her pizzele. If she'd only caught me two days ago. As it was, I remained strong. I had some kinda dry tasteless tenderloin (if people hadn't been watching me, I wouldn't have wasted the calories eating the whole thing).
Kids are screaming their heads off and running around downstairs so I beat a path upstairs again. I'm too tired to do more dress stuff right now so I think I'll watch my Mad Men DVDs and go to sleep in an hour or two.
