Happy Birthday, _bellisima!

Post-{Insert Winter Holiday Here} Report

This year's Christmas was okay, albeit anything but peaceful. First, a few relatives were a bit late in arriving, and Tavia, who, by all accounts, wasn't showing up, did, giving Mom 20 minutes' notice to prepare her stocking. Meanwhile, I was treated to my two toddler nephews. Then I was charged with the delivery of the presents, which, given the missing relatives this year was a bit daunting. Eventually, I got it done, however, and was given time to open my presents. Thankfully, I was able to do this in peace and quiet.

My take this year consisted mostly of video DVDs. Here it is:

After my gift unwrapping, I tried calling people on my cell to wish them a Happy {Insert Winter Holiday Here}. This plan was foiled -- apparently, Tracfone's wireless carrier in WV requires a credit card for any roaming calls. Couldn't afford that with MagFest coming up soon, so I skipped it. If you were on my friends list, you were a likely target of this, so consider yourselves phoned. I might have better luck at New Year's.

Anyway, that's about it, so I hope you all had a Happy {Insert Winter Holiday Here}, and for those of you on the Gregorian calendar, have a Happy New Year as well!

Argh.

Due to a snowstorm outside, today being a state holiday for the road crews (for reasons passing understanding), and Mom being a pussy, I am trapped in this backwater hellhole for at least another day, with nothing to do. I'll leave you all to ponder how I'm taking this.

Will post again when if I reach civilization.
