urbandruidHappy Christmas, gang. Or whatever you celebrate (or don't).
We've had a kind of strange one here so far. I still feel like Christmas should be a week or so away, maybe we'd be ready then. We just got the lights on the three night before last, and so far the only ornament we hung was the one that's been on Mom's dresser since she found it under her bed about six months ago (Sam must've decided it was a cat toy, stolen it off the tree, and carried it back there, little turkey.) We're going to try to put the rest of the ornaments on tomorrow.
Tonight we had some festive Christmas DVD watching- our classic Christmas favorite, "The Ref", and then, because we bought it last week and hadn't seen it yet, "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor."
Also baked some cookies, from some mix we found on sale. "Take out of fridge, slap on cookie sheet, bake." They're not awesome, but they didn't take much effort either.
Tomorrow it's brunch at Grandma and Grandpa's in the dining room at their retirement home. (Nowhere near as bad as it sounds, the food's actually really good and has the added benefit of none of us having to cook it.) My uncle may or may not be eating with us, depends on his work schedule. It should be... interesting. But at least we don't have to be there till 1:00.
I was going to say something else, but I'm falling asleep at the keyboard here, so, bed for me.
