Oh Bother*

I'm feeling quite hopeful for Christmas and the New Year. I love New Year. It feels so bright and shiny. And new calendars! What makes me happier than a midget at a strip club? New calendars!

The fun of filling in each little blank white box with Birthdays, anniversaries, vacations, and holidays...only to forget them until I look at March and realize with a mild degree of tachycardia that "Oh Shit! Tomorrow Is My Dad's Birthday!" Sigh, the anticipation makes me giddy.

So, Merry Christmas everyone! Here in Naptown, we are happily looking forward to snow melting, rain coming on Christmas day, and then for the temperature to plummet into the 20's and turn Southern/Central MD into an insane ice-skating park the next day. I can't wait for the panic to set in. Run - we need Milk! Toilet Paper! And Bread!!!

Happy Birthday Baby Jesus!


*This post brought to you by an amped up Esmerelda, who is working late tonight for ??? reason and has accidentally eaten all of the delicious gingersnap cookies provided by the no-worker co-worker, who, may I add, is an insanely good baker? Mmm, mmm. And I don't even really like gingersnaps.

Fun fact.

Fun fact for the day:

If you eat an entire 30 count bag of Halls sugar-free menthol cough drops, you will fart very loudly, very often, and actually quite painfully. Glad to know I learned this at work. Luckily for me, I was able to hold in the loud, painful farts until I was alone in the office and not in Court. And I can't smell. But I feel for the person who is walking into the office next.

I think I'll buy the full sugar kind and have high blood glucose rather than normal blood glucose and Godzilla farts.
