Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I remember going to the mall one 12/24. I will never do that again.
The secret is to go out for drinks first. And possibly during. Definitely after.

Because books.
And possibly during.

The last time I worked on Christmas Eve was a few years ago at B&N. It got really slow after 3:00, and we were glad to leave after closing at 5:00. The regular staff were all leaving after finishing cleaning the store at 5:45 (the manager was helping the cafe manager with some last-minute stuff), and as we were opening the door to leave, a customer was trying to come in. We had to stop and tell him that we had been closed for 45 minutes already, and if he was shopping for the next day, he'd have to go elsewhere.

I'm planning on doing the last of my grocery shopping tomorrow morning...thank you zipcar...and am as grateful as ever to NOT be traveling over the holiday.
I love the "Turkey Bowl", touch football game in the local park, watching the city leaf pickup (I'm assuming it's a giant overtime scam, but find it amusing anyway), and the terrific stillness of the neighborhood after abut 3pm when the entire place nearly snores in unison.

Strange thing from this weekend. In some sort of sibling conflict, Leif spread sugar all over Em's room. I'm not sure what the reason was, but if he had taken the opportunity to say he was sugar-coating the situation I think he'd been exempt from any punishment.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Gud, I think your kids presage things that are going to happen with mine.

I think that getting Leif and Liv together would be like crossing the streams.

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