I received the cutest Christmas gift from my stepsister Allie today. She sent me a Jack Skellington plushie and a drawing of the TARDIS with the “madman with a box” quote on it. I love them.

I feel like I started the day chugging along like a locomotive and ended the day feeling as if I had been run over by said locomotive. Ugh.

2 Egg Rolls Eaten
1 Tired Kitty Cat
Today was… difficult. Not without its lovely moments though. I found myself thinking of Daddy a lot today. He was always big on Christmas, or at least the giving gifts and embracing the heart of the season. I miss his laugh. I miss him.

I’m exhausted today and want to go to bed. So that’s what I’m going to do. We had spaghetti and meatballs for dinner.
Work was hard today. I didn’t get any writing done. But it’s Yule. So. Happy Yule my friends. May the longest night dawn in brightness for you all.

Spock woke me up at five-fricking-thirty this morning. And none too nicely either. But I got up long enough to medicate myself and feed him; then he let me go back to bed undisturbed.

6 Holiday Cards Prepared
2 Hours of System Outage
1 More Sleep Till Friday
I got the cutest pack of holiday cards from Linna before they moved up north. It has a stocking on one set and an adorable dressed up otter on the other set. I quite liked filling out cards, even though they won’t likely be there in time for Christmas. Maybe New Year’s?

We had a jarred curry sauce over Morning Star Farms fake chicken tonight. Fen made it with some peas and carrots and served it over 90 second rice. It was really good. I added too much hot sauce and made my nose run though.
Speaking of hot sauce, I wore the first pair of Taco Bell socks today. They were great!
Work went…okay. There were two tubs of mail to process so it took me over two hours to scan everything in.
When I got home, though, I had a Christmas card waiting from both Papa Ben and Pop Tom as well as from my friend Savvy! She sent the cutest Grinch card and wrote a very sweet message inside.
I haven’t gotten any writing done, unfortunately. I was in too much pain after work to focus on writing. Or reading. Or crocheting for longer than ten minutes at a time. So it was a few episodes of Murder, She Wrote and a bowl of frosted mini wheats for dessert.
My brain is fried. I’m going to go read for a bit, if I can.
Take your meds, folks.
