Almost Ready to Return

Given the bum wrist and the bloated stomach, I have not been blogging for the last two days. Sitting at the keyboard has been a rather uncomfortable affair.

Relief is near; digestion has been prodigiously working away to alleviate the distended waistline and see that my jeans can once again be buttoned.

Great meals over the past two days. I hope you all had equally wonderful celebrations.

I brought the SharpieTM pens (thanks for the suggestion, Aelfheld) to my folk's house yesterday, and I got all the nephews and nieces to sign the cast. My nephew, The General, must have thought I looked pretty tough because he penned, "Join the Navy!"

Not too much else to add: Except that I am on track to finish the Christmas shopping on Sunday. And don't think I won't be rubbing it in when you all are forced into Dante's frequently overlooked tenth level of hell: Shopping Malls during the Four Weeks before Christmas.

Would it be evil to snicker right about now?

Glad the pens worked.

Snicker away; I solved my Christmas shopping dilemma about three years ago. I announced to all and sundry that I was no longer accepting Christmas gifts, and if they were over 18 years of age they could expect a Christmas card. Now I buy for my nephew and the children of a couple of friends - the last three Christmas seasons have been deliciously relaxed, and this one looks to follow the trend.

I thought you would probably have someone put on your cast: "Beware payback from THE HAMMER". Take care and see you ROTK weekend.
