Teppy, that sounds like a good substitute for alcohol. Feel better!
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Because books.
I have strep throat with new!, added chest congestion and coughing, and I'm in jammies on the couch. Both kids are out, the dog is snoring next to me, and I have food, movies, and chocolate. I'm sort of psyched, to be honest.

Boy, I feel like I should be sacrificing a small creature of some sort in thanks that I've only had some congestion so far this winter.

added chest congestion and coughing
My cough sounds like a rusty old muffler that's more holes than metal. It's gross.
And I have a migraine on top of the cold (because why not? I assume leprosy is next), so I am tripping balls from all the meds in my system right now.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
So I may just have hot chocolate with a Peep gingerbread man and whipped cream.
That sounds fantastic.
i'm sorry for the sicknesses! Feel better soon, y'all, and enjoy a restful evening.
Champagne (I am pretty sure it was made in California, but the label says Champagne, so I'll go with its self-identification) is in the fridge. One wall of cupboards emptied and vacuumed and wiped down with disinfectant; some of that refilled with clean and inventoried dishes. I have not cleared off and vacuumed the window - that seems like a slightly different task to me. One that needs doing, but maybe not today. Should probably start steaming things, as I'm starting to get hungry and do intend to start drinking before too long (wine, probably, I have a lot and it's easy).

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
We are celebrating at home with a roast chicken dinner and probably wine for the parents. Kids can have sparkling grape juice and then a movie together. Haven't picked it out yet. Low key. Christmas took up all my hosting energy for the end of the year.

Oof. That hurts. Mine is still loose and pretty phlegm-y, which ... is a good thing, really.
I just don't know what to watch tonight. I have a craving to see Skyfall, but I could also go for the first Mockingjay. Decisions.

I gotta be honest: whatever I put in the DVD player, I'll probably be asleep within 10 minutes. So it kind of doesn't matter.

Have you seen Skyfall yet? I was not in love with it, but I guess I'm glad I've seen it. But I'd vote first Mockingjay, although I haven't seen it yet. Well, because I haven't seen it yet actually, so now I want to.

hip deep in pie
I am going to a party, but I'd rather be staying in. Of course, if I was staying in, I'd be mopey that I had no plans. I am contrary like that.
This party does serve beouf bourguignoin after midnight, so there's that.
