Notice of Temporary Absence
Wherein Our
Heroine Takes a Holiday.
Today is Our Hero's last day of work
before a much-anticipated (and much deserved) 11-day break. As such, I will
probably only be posting Extras for the next week and a half or so. My brain
needs a rest from blogging and I want to spend lots of quality time with my
brilliant husband (as far as we know, he got A's in both of his classes this
semester! In the house of Our Heroine there was much
rejoicing).
Random Bit the
First: we actually watched part of the evening news yesterday. They did a spot
on teenagers playing poker. Some asinine woman was interviewed and said that
giving teenagers poker chips and cards was as dangerous as giving them guns. I
had to turn off the TV at that point. It was that or explode. I couldn't
figure out whether I was angrier at the idiot-woman for saying the idiot-thing
or the network for broadcasting it without question or
argument.
Random Bit the
Second: Toshie the wonder-dog seems to have sprained his shoulder. We were
playing frisbee yesterday. Given the opportunity, he would play until he
dropped, but I usually watch him closely for signs of fatigue to ensure he
doesn't overtire or get injured. But I indulged him yesterday, as we hadn't
spent much time outside when the weather was so intensely cold. I gave him the
fatal one-more-throw, and he came back limping. Poor little guy. He's still
hobbling about today and I feel
guilty.
None of this is very
Christmassy, but that's all I've got for the moment. Check back occasionally
for Extras and have a very happy winter celebration of your choice, Dear
Readers.
