Merry Christmas, everyone.
May tomorrow be a good day for you and yours, in whatever way you prefer. And, please: travel safe. The roads can be slightly insane, this time of year.
Well, that was a day.
Hopefully, all of the tedious, irritating, and/or mildly urgent stuff has gotten itself out of the way around here, allowing us to have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in peace. Hopefully. I’m aware of the dangers of posting such a pious wish.
If I don’t say, later: may you all have a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year.
Adventures in Fresh Air: Christmas walks.
Full disclosure: I can be a homebody. The pandemic didn’t help that at all. Accordingly, I’m trying to default to saying ‘Yes’ to ‘Let’s do this for Christmas!’ suggestions this year, and I have to admit that it’s working out so far. Case in point: we went on a combination Christmas Lights walk and cocktails stations thingy this evening.
We didn’t drink-drink, mind you. But the eggnog martinis were very nice, and so was the cherry bourbon cocktail, and my wife is going to find that chocolate stout again for later. So, hey: success!
There’s an Icelandic Christmas Eve book-gifting tradition!
At least, so I have been told. I suppose that I could check, only I’m not going to. Where’s the benefit in that, after all?
I am not saying, go buy my books and give them to people. I am saying, make all the independent authors you read very happy today and gift one of their books to somebody. Christmas weekend is an important time for a lot of these folks, especially when the Amazon gift cards fall like rain tomorrow. They’ll love you forever if you give the gift of them, and they won’t even know your name…
It’s Christmas Eve, and all through the house…
…we’ve done all our chores, and now we’re relaxing before the chaos of tomorrow. The roast is in the fridge, the presents are wrapped, and my wife is finishing the second season of HE-MAN. She watched it a lot growing up (I was a TRANSFORMERS GI JOE guy myself), so it’s been a lot of fun for her.
Merry Christmas, folks.
Tweet of the Day, Best. Belated Christmas Present. EVER. edition.
It was a good day. It was a very good day. Here. Buy something to commemorate it.
Merry Christmas!
And/or Happy Holidays.
Merry Christmas!
…My darling children woke me up, promptly at 7 AM, by turning on the lights suddenly. I gobbled like a Christmas turkey, apparently. It was probably hysterical to see. But it’s Christmas, so at least they didn’t do it at 5 AM.
Merry Christmas to all of my readers! And everybody else.
Yeah, we’re in holiday mode at this point.
Gotta wrap presents and whatnot, so that I don’t have to wrap them tomorrow. Happy holidays and Merry Christmas, folks. I mean, I’m gonna be around, but all of that anyway.
