Hope you enjoy the day ahead and get what you were looking for!

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone’s fault. If it was Us, what did that make Me? After all, I’m one of Us. I must be. I’ve certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We’re always one of Us. It’s Them that do bad things. - Jingo, Terry Pratchett

I got to spend a couple days with friends and family, which all I really wanted.  I thank God for all the blessings I've received over the past year!

Oh, and I got $100 from my grandma!  Bonus!

I've been sick the past few days, but I'm making the best of it as well I can. It's a quiet Christmas, but there are worse ways to spend it. :)

Merry Christmas, everybody!

It's a white Christmas here!  Very seasonal but not great for moving....
Happy Christmas everyone!
There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning....
And that, I think, was the handle - that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn't need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting - on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave....
So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark - that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

Does rain count as a white christmas?

I think so. They'll not have that crispy outer shell but you don't eat that anyway.

Boxing day was sitting around drinking with friends. Bliss.
