I hate the 23rd, you have finished all the shopping, you've wrapped all the presents, it's to early to start the preps for the food for Xmas day.

They should BAN the 23rd! it sucks.

I have so much to do tomorrow that I can't start today Smiley: bah

Doesn't an anticlimax happen at the end of a series of events, which should have resulted in a climax, but were then a let-down? Today's a day of anticipation and anxiousness, not anticlimax.

There's really only one way to deal with a situation like this. Drink until your liver decides it's had enough of the whole business and just shuts down.

I have one more present to get, and everythign is snowed in to the point I can bairly get to work, let alone everywhere else.

I discovered the hard way that my current wheels are too big for my chain set, and no one has any chains in stock that fit them at the moment.

I'm ready for my 4 day weekend, the fact that it's Christmas at this point is kinda "meh" to me.

I have a couple more presents to get. Do all the wrapping. I'm not cooking anything for Christmas this year except for maybe a beef stew in the crock pot.

Hopefully I'll get my Christmas bonus today, since they decided not to give it to us last Friday. If so, I'll stop by and pick something up for my husband for Christmas. If not, he'll have to wait. Smiley: frown

We're getting bonuses and a check for most of December tomorrow.

Mmmmm $$$

I just finished shoveling, will probably spend the rest of the day playing Little Big Planet, Folklore, or The World Ends With You. Then later this evening, I'm going to brave the weather, hop on a bus, hit up a liquor store, then bring booze to an all night Magic the Gathering geekfest.

Tomorrow, once I wake up, I'll call my Dad, and he'll come pick me up to go hibernate at my parents house until the following morning where there had better be a motherfucking pony under that tree. I mean business this year, Santa. Do not disappoint me.

I like the 23rd!

I got to go surfing. Got fully sunburnt. Smoked a spliff and sank a beer in the dunes at sunset (about 9pm atm), then drove home all smiley and spent a couple of hours hunting orcs in Moria.

I do hope the 25th is half as good.
