So, how's everyone holding up during this, the most wonderful time of the year? Our Christmas was nice and quiet, just the way I like it. The weather has been gorgeous, although a bit warm for this time of year. People should not be walking around outside in shortsleeves in the middle of winter. I'm not really complaining, though - just look at these poor people.

And now comes the New Year. Any exciting plans? Sheila and I are going to head down to Anna Liffey's, a 3- or 4-years-running tradition now. Being the last-minute queens that we are, Sheila will be driving down to AL's tonight to buy the tickets and I will be heading to the mall to try to find something to wear.
