Full moon

The celebratory hosts sweep to and fro beneath my windows. I wonder if they're having as much fun as they were told to expect?

Eternal vigilance, or, someone should hire some proofreaders

The USITC posted fourteen changes today, and five of those changes have conspicuous errors. There may be more mistakes that I just haven't found yet.

*sigh*

Boxing Day

In the morning I boxed up the superfluous china and banished it to the basement.

In the afternoon, I opened three more boxes of books (pocket fiction, Andrews-Davies; religion, fortune-telling, and card games; playing cards and fragile miscellany).

In the evening, I had b2 and L over for wine and snacks. We got dinner in Chinatown and then went to the Buena Vista for Irish Coffees. We took the cable car home.


Today's earrings: gingerbread men, brooms

A feast day of my people

We had brunch. :)

There were many small and lovely things in my stocking. M won at Scrabble (but if we'd applied the proposed 'yule rule' things might have been different). K&S called from Copenhagen - sounds like they were enjoying the Danish. CC and I watched "Sing Faster" in the living room while AL and M watched Schoolhouse Rock in the family room. Later we all joined in watching "Galaxy Quest" and eating cheese.


Today's earrings: flies, amber
