The longest thread ever

DinK gravy > DinK eggnog. I’ve drank pints of both in a sitting, so I know that of which I speak.

Was there alcohol in the gravy? There's alcohol in the eggnog.

No. THAT’S how good it is.

Right this very minute? Candles in the window, carols at the spinet?

Sure - or maybe just some holiday cheer. Or holiday spirits.

Headed home from Montreal/Ottawa now. Off for the next 3 weeks, so pretty mirthful.

All over but the post-lunch sugar rush for junk-food addled adolescents here in the junior high trenches. My last day before break outfit is stupefyingly festive. Tomorrow I'm going to see the Christmas tree of all Christmas trees, something that's been on my list for like 35 years.

No Christmas needed for me; I've got plenty.

OK, just to clarify. There are some days when people, in general, DO irritate me. These are usually when I have encountered dangerous aggressive drivers and really bad customer service.

Budwom's reminder that I am not yet retired is a bit irritating but I was mostly being facetious.

As for Christmas spirit, yeah, I need it. One annual family holiday gathering has just been cancelled due to COVID fears. I have a 93 yo aunt and an 81 yo uncle, not to mention my mom, who need to see family as much as possible. I worry we won't be able to all get together again soon enough.

Plus our immediate family gathering may be whittled down to nothing again, depending on this crappy virus. And family members wanting to move away from traditions is saddening. It's others' Scroogedom making me a Scrooge, and I do not like it.

On the plus side, I am working from home today, and will not be back in the office until 1/4/2022. Whoo hoo!

Nothing gets me in The Christmas spirit like pulling tinsel out of a cat’s butt.

Nothing gets me in The Christmas spirit line pulling tinsel out of a cat’s butt.

OK, NOW I am feeling jollier!
