Crossing my fingers for good news among the mess, Pix.
K-Bug took me out to the Nutcracker today. She also gave me an early Christmas present of a fancy holiday outfit. We had a great time. Now we are home slounging.
Hey, man, where are my pants? I have my hippo dignity!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I don't know if there's a correct thread for this, but they've announced the casting for the Harry Potter play. They've cast a black woman as Hermione.
I am already wincing in anticipation of the hysteria that will result from this.

I wonder if even a single person who'll complain will have had prior plans to see it on the stage? I'm thinking live theatre probably isn't the friendliest place for racists...

I'm watching Star Wars Ep IV with my mom. She's never seen it before. We're watching the remastered version, but I paused it and asked, "What just happened?" and she thinks Han shot first.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Why does Tom Hardy remind me of ita? There's some link I can't remember. Surfing?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Burrell, would it help if I do a Rah Rah cheer for you? Rah rah! You can do it!
Ah thanks, we almost pulled it off. I finished most of my Xmas shopping although now I need to quickly line up a gift for some beloved family members who'll be coming to Christmas eve dinner. Tamale order seems in flux so need to nail that down tomorrow. Cleaning and sorting was least successful part of the day, but we stowed several boxes of books in the attic and packed two for donation.
Relatedly, my brain is pretty toasty.
