I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

BK sounds lovely. I've downed two sore throat cures (equal parts lemon, honey, and Jack Daniels--and there was a lot of lemon) and now I'm watching plague shows on the Science channel while reading Avnengers fic. God(dess) bless Yule vacation.

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

OMG, my bags didn't show up, and we ended up driving out to get them. And part of my gift to my sister broke.

It's not so much ducks nibbling as swans biting, and I'm bruised all over even if I'm not bleeding.

Don't think we're going to a resort this year. Major sadface. That was tradition, man. But I'm not all the way upset. Food family conversation--all good, and even better now that sister is home, and luggage is too.

HELLO PEOPLE!!!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I am so wiped. But I a lot of stuff done yesterday and today.

Also, I make a kick-ass homemade alfredo sauce. Baked pumpkin cookies and a loaf of lemon bread to take to D's family get-togethers.

ita !, your idea on vacation early prescriptions saved my life. I got my Ambien a week early today and it will be a godsend on the 4 days on a lumpy sofabed. THANK YOU. I owe you delicious tea and a ganache torte. Sorry swans are attacking you. Fly me to Jamaica and I will fry them, 'k

Presents are wrapped, decorations are up, the dog is bathed and has a new collar and I am going to take a hot damn shower as soon as I'm done with my peppermint schnapps cocoa.

Then sleep. Sweet sleep.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I can't believe I likely talked my stepmom into watching Scandal. It's a good show and I really love it but omg cunniligus was not what I expected when I told her she should watch. In general, I'm a big fan. Just I sort of thought it'd be clothes and no real politics chatting. Now there's cunniligus . Still I love the show. I just wish I only talked about it with you guys and not parentals.

and now I'm watching plague shows on the Science channel

Which are awesome!

I am landed in Houston! Now to get a good nights rest before continuing on to Dallas. And then to Indy. Ugh. Such a freaking trek.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

This is only my second time being in charge of a tree, and the tree we got came from the grocery store next door with a wooden cross attached to the bottom. This seems impossible to keep in water. Is it ok if it is just nailed to the base, unwatered for like 15 days?

It's going to get very dry and the needles will start to fall off and make a mess.

You can get a cheap plastic stand that's cruciform and you just drop the damn thing in it and water it. It's not ideal but it will work.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Most of the trees we had when i was a kid had the cross attached. We always pulled the cross off and then put it in a tree stand
