I usually get almond Rica for Christmas and no one could find it this year! It is sad-making. There is a container at the little store/gas station across the street from me, but it has been there at least 5 years!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Nice by-product of frantically cleaning before a hook-up dropped by: mostly clean apartment that's suitable for guests to see. If I can work up the motivation to vacuum today, it will be literal clean sweep.
Yesterday, I had a lot of plans to Get Things Done today.
Today, I just don't care.
People are talking SPORTSBALL in Yuletide IRC...
::weeps::
I am probably more of a sportsball person than a fic person, really, and I have to admit I never got the hang of IRC, but that does seem very wrong.
Timelies all!
In the airport, where our flight is delayed an hour and a half. Sigh...
Ugh, have had a sore throat all day, well past the point where it could be blamed on how I breathed while sleeping. Oh well, I guess after hugging a half dozen children and sharing air with dozens of people from three families, it was unavoidable. At least it didn't get in the way of any holiday celebrations, or getting to break a long dry spell yesterday, and so far Mom and Dad have no symptoms to report.
Hello and happy holidays all! I have been pretty out of sight all week with family and house cleaning and the occasional breakdown. But it was a good Christmas all in all. Highlights included finally having the house cleaned and the food prepared in time to enjoy Christmas eve dinner with family and seeing TFA on the 26th.
I overbought on tamales for the holiday but have been happily eating them ever since.
Suzi, so sorry for your loss.
Had a great time out with my sister and a couple of her friends (who I know) last night. But OMG, four drinks was way too many (though one was DELICIOUS, and I vaguely remember announcing that it tasted like perfect delicate christmas??), and seeing Star Wars in 3D while hungover? REALLY bad plan. Had to take my migraine meds and nap for a few hours, and let my sister and her fam go to the friend's brownies and champagne party while I stayed home. :(
Am very ready to be back at home in Seattle, too. So ready. (But I don't leave until Tuesday)
Hope the breakdowns have been brief, Burrell? Tamales sound delicious!
