New Year's Eve

Day two of my three days off and I am still in my jammies. I have work to do, but until I am wearing pants, there is no rush. The last two weeks have been a doozy: parenting issues, double shifts, gift availability, surprise family visits, and scouts. I think I'll finish my graduation champagne before I try to un-knot all of it.

--Is that where you are putting your Advent calendar?
==Yeah, why?
--Covering my Carl Larsson tray? There was no other place?
==I'm staging a coup d'etat. That nail is mine now.
