Got time on your hands during the holidays? Go Volunteer. Seriously. Someone out there needs you.

See you tomorrow!

I'm not sure how to process this one.

I've run out of fingers, folks. What am I counting?

Relationships ending. The veriest long-term of the long-term kind, no less.

I AM OUT OF FINGERS GUYS. I dunno. Quiddit doesn't seem like the right thing to say. I am sorrier than I can say, as well.

This time of year. Bad enough in the middle of summer. BUT NOW? My heart breaks.

And then there is the whole lack of fingers left over thang. I can't remember a season so harsh.

...

Folks, did I have someone who works at Yahoo on the list? I fielded the strange call of the season last night, from the Best Man from my first wedding, who I set the account up for back in the day. We haven't seen each other for more than a quick visit (and the last one was during AOD year before last, to boot) since Cliff passed and Jim entered the picture...and 9/11 'jokes' created a schism I'm still trying to overcome. He called me last night. He is having ZERO luck retrieving said account...and I advised him to stop trying to get through the database queries and speak to a human being at Yahoo for assistance.

No, I hadn't done anything to the account. God, the people he must deal with on an ongoing basis if he though I'd actually be malicious enough...for no reason whatsoever...to sabotage someone who I have nothing against, without communicating any irritation. *grins a bit* Guys, if I want to do you in, I will TELEGRAPH it loud and wide, at least. I have a long fuse, but it's not THAT long. You'll know.

silverkun, cyberotic_waste, can I ask for a side trip to Napa? We might be able to pull off a lunch if we're lucky - he has a son now, domestic open adoption (IRONIC AS WELL), and....stuff. I could also get a picture of me with the Best Man from my first wedding and the Best Man from my second one. AND LIVE.

And Hakusan is up that way, neh?

I am making labels for the jelly and spice mixes...."Pomegranate Carnage," "Guava Massacre" and "BAM Powder." I got boxes to pack. Last shipping before Christmas is tomorrow -

SQUEE SQUEE SQUEE

I came home this afternoon, to find a box.

Okay, no worries - there are lots of boxes coming right now. But this one, I hadn't been expecting.

It was the Time-Life DVD pressing of the entire Man From UNCLE TV series. ALL OF IT. (Cute lil' carrying case and everything.)

I've been busy corrupting Jim. I'll be corrupting folks on Christmas Eve. (Like GITS:SAC? You ain't seen nothing yet.)

I was too young to stay up to watch this when it was in its original run - and while there were some professional pressings, they weren't of the ones I really liked or wanted.

This is all of them.

And I just finished watching "Mad, Mad Tea Party Affair" - for the first time in over fifteen years.

I am very happy.
