Hoppy Hallidays

...Cos I dunno which ones yours are; a lot of 'em hit about now, our ancestors having happened to notice there was a solstice about now each and every year and our various and sundry $DEITIES, philosophical sodalities an' marching-and-chowder societies very nicely caused Significant Happenings to occur at the same time. Whatever one(s) you celebrate, I hope they're as joyful as required, an' then some.

(I'm sittin' here killin' a very few while waiting out a half-hour see-if-it-fails on the replacement for last week's Vital Object that showed up broken. So far, so good. Oh, those Farnsworth Fusors! I hate tunin' a stardrive hot but sometimes there's no other way).

My family already did theirs, a fine time (hey, I gotta dolly! And some major B&N gift cardage), though somewhat shortened by my (neutered) tomcat, who, annoyed at my bustling about on a normally-quiet evening while preparing to depart, decided to demonstrate the meaning of "retromingent" on some boxes of books. No harm to the contents, just lost a few boxes -- and time I didn't have to spare. Oh, well.

And my very own Christmas in my very own house is still to come! ...I haven't owned a house in...gee. Never. So I'm lookin' forward! Still have to pick up something for the cats. Do they make feline Depends?

Why, I'm where the heart is, by the transitive property of equality:
1. I'm home
2. Home is where the heart is.
3. Things equal to the same thing are equal to one another.
Q.E.D.

And Merry Everything to you and yours, including the turtle!

Sending vast waves of positive vibes your way....

Don't really care what holiday it is, or isn't. I just care if you are happy or not.

Peace unto you...
