Unfortunately I lost Feliz Navidad LONG ago. Still no LDB.
I'm sorry for family fraughtness all around.
It's been quiet in our house... I still have gifts to wrap, portfolios to score and a pair of pajamas to sew.
Niska: Mr. Reynolds? You died, Mr. Reynolds. Mal: Seemed like the thing to do.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I am at work, but it's quiet here, so that's a plus.

My father had the "here's what we want when we're infirm" conversation with me last night. Don't wanna!
I'm getting the 'we've got no infirmities' but LET US SHOW YOU THEM.
To which I'm apparently all practical and irritated which makes for fun times.
Eh, I'll live. What's bad is I really don't have anything for dad this year( he doesn't want stuff! He has everything!) and it looks like I'm holding a grudge, which isn't the case, just lacking inspiration.

I am so out of inspiration on the gift front. I just... I don't know.
The worst is buying stuff from the kids for K. I'm feeling Christmased out.
The twins are watching Charlie Brown Christmas which I bought yesterday and really love.

I insist "it's Jamaica" is not a good enough excuse for not paying attention to your work, but he insists that's just the way.
Heh, Tom's your indignant New Orleans counterpart.

Insent, Scrappy.

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'm at work. There was almost no traffic on the way here.
I seem to be going through another Beatles phase, so I'm listening to Abbey Road. Next up: Let It Be, which I just bought.

There's a toy that the two-year-old likes, so I've been Feliz Navidaded to death already.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
People are leaving en masse here at work. I should have time to get to the theater in time for The Hobbit.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I tried to make a case for seeing The Hobbit again, but the husband wasn't having it.
