The Day of: a Christmas Timeline
We
begin by...
We stayed
up late (didn’t get home from work until 11:15pm
anyway) and opened gifts around, oh, 12:01am
Christmas Morning.
I got a nice sweater, some shorts, a piece of workout
equipment, a Blu-Ray Movie (which I don’t have a
player yet to watch it with :-( … ) and a mini
wet/dry vacuum.
The Girl got some pants, a sweatsuit, some shirts, a
couple sweaters, a cast iron pan & handle cover,
& a Victoria’s Secret Nightie & Undies. And
handcuffs. Yes, Handcuffs.
So you could probably say I got a piece of ass for
Christmas, too.
Later
that day…
We got up
and had breakfast (using the new cast iron pan), then
hung around and eventually got up enough strength to
take the dogs out again today. We were helped along
by some wet-nose prodding, of course. We went out to
the less-frequently visited portion of the beach,
then trekked around (in 4x4 mode) along the beach to
the tip of the peninsula and around to face the bay.
Here, we let Miles have at
it in the waters for an hour or so.
Hopefully they’ll be worn out enough tomorrow to
leave us the hell alone! Well Miles,
hopefully. Zoey’s already
so tuckered out that she’s falling asleep standing
up with her face on the couch.
Then…
The rain
came. I had plans to do a workout and also to mow the
lawns. Suffice to say that instead, I took a nap and
lounged around all day.
Not that rain prevents working out. It’s just that I
figured,
what the hell. It’s
Consumer-mas. So I
skipped it. Well, not so much skipped it as pushed it
back a day. I’ll be home by like 3:30pm tomorrow,
provided I don’t get fired. So I should have plenty
of time.
Then
it was movie time
We
rented
Meet the Robinsons on
Christmas Eve, to watch on Christmas. I’m not going
to give an overview here now, but maybe in another
day or so.
And,
you?
Like I
said yesterday, “Joyous festival of your choosing.”
So hopefully you did that, huh? Was it everything you
hoped I would be? Did you get a 60” Sony Flat-screen
LCD HDTV with 2ms response time or less?
Because if you did, I hate you.
Peace.
