Festiveness has happened, in any case. Yesterday, I made myself a nice Christmas Eve dinner, then opened my presents at midnight. Today, I might or might not visit friends in town, and later there will be Doctor Who. What more could one ask for?
Speaking of presents, this year I got:
- A copy of SpaceShipOne: An Illustrated History.
- In the Shadow of the Moon on DVD.
- Star Trek: The Animated Series.
- Two generous Amazon gift certificates.
- Tourist Season and Stormy Weather by Carl Hiaasen. (From my LibraryThing Secret Santa!)
- A wonderfully silly, colorful hand-knit hat.
- A chocolate mouse in a Santa hat that was almost too cute too eat. (Not that that's stopping me!)
My sister, by the way, wins the Coolest Santa award for the animated Trek DVDs, which I have been wanting forever. Yay! And a giant "thank you!" to all the lovely, lovely people who think of me at Christmas, whether gifts are involved in the process or not. *hugs you all*
I only hope the stuff I got for other people makes them half as happy!
Merry Christmas. We certainly love our gifts. Especially the DVDs for Janice. Love from all of us in Florida. Did I mention that is was 80* here today.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! Glad you like! And it's not too terribly cold here, today, so I refuse to be jealous of your weather. I mean, Christmas ought to at least be a bit chilly. :)
ReplyDeleteI do miss that. For a while anyway
ReplyDeleteAlthough it's belated, happy holidays!
ReplyDeleteAnd to you!
ReplyDeleteI watched those Star Trek TAS episodes on youtube not too long ago. Great stuff. My favorite is the one where they have to escape the planet of beautiful women. So true to real life. At least, MY experiences with beautiful women have been like that. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteYes, apparently many people have that problem with beautiful women. ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you!
