matrixrefugeeWore my green elf-hat to work today, but it didn't go over too big: a three-year old kid who was probably in dire need of lunch or a nap or both took one look at me and started howling, which made me a sad grocery clerk.
Also, the ladies in the front end were taking up a collection for a Christmas present for the Major Pain in the Neck. "Lucy", one of the cashiers, was organising it, and when she came up to me, asking me what I'd be able to give... I told her, "Coal, because he's been a naughty boy with the schedule," appended with an eeriely dead-on impersonation of Crispin Freeman's Alucard sniggering eeevilly. Not real coal, of course, but... bubble-gum coal I got at the dollar store that opened in our neighborhood a few weeks ago. This guy needs some lessons in humor and being an expert at dry wackiness, I couldn't be a better teacher for him.
Just got our tree into the house, but since it snowed on it, the tree has to drip-dry before we can even think about putting the lights on it.
