Re: What if (none / 1)

Sounds excellent. Despite my current rush of warm fuzzies, I've actually declared a moratorium on Christmas this year -- I'm still not fully recovered from a hellish Thanksgiving! -- so I'm just taking it easy, which is nice. I do have to go to a dinner tonight, but there's no gifts involved, so should be fairly low-key. I might wear my red shoes, though.

Where?

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

Umm, .. shrek and Victorian farm. Plus I videoed 6 days 7 nights and Bridgett Jones from last night which I'm watching today.

then later I'll record shakespeare in love for tomorrow morning.

And booze lowers the threshold of what's watchable anyway.

Re: What if (none / 1)

and forgive me that I was a little too "content" to ask how your xmas eve is going. Even if it's early afternoon over your way.

lol - no worries. I consider myself "in rome" when entering et threads. Saying 'good morning' in the salon at midnight is normal now!
