Not much happened this week, so not much got written. I’m sorry about that. Le sigh.

For the sake of filling space, here’s my Christmas haul:

• A Sumomo mug and hot cocoa to drink in it. (Thank you, Dawn!)
  
• CDs by Peter Gabriel, Mike & The Mechanics, and Moby. (Thank you Lil’ & Geoffrey and Mari!)
  
• Chocolate. (Thank you Mari… and those mint KitKats are sinful. Truly.)
  
• A shirt. (Thanks, Kelsey Grandparents. I can always count on you for attire.)
  
• Jammies and an extremely comfy new terrycloth bathrobe. (Thank you, Wendi and Alex and Erica!)
  

Not bad, all things considered. I spent almost the entire day in jammies and bathrobe. Mmmm.

I know that Alex liked what I got him this year… considering he spent almost the entire day playing the (Lego) Bionicle PC game. Sometimes this parenting thing is a blast, you know?

Anyway, the holiday is over for another year. I didn’t even have to suffer through a showing of either A Christmas Story or It’s A Wonderful Life. Now that I think on it, I suppose I could count that as an additional present. Wouldn’t you agree?
