Not Much to Say:

 

It’s always hard to go back to work after time off.

I still feel like I’m meant to hibernate for three solid months in the winter.

Think I could get my employer behind that?

 

Oh,
and here’s what I’ve been reading:

 

 

I love this book.

 

Probably the only Wolfe fiction you need to read.

 

 

Wonderful. Magnificent.

 

 

Seriously great cover--the beginning is slow, but it's fascinating.

Merry Christmas:

 

Christmas Eve is better with an Octopus.

 

Tonight,
the Boyo and I took Nami and our friends’ wiggly pup, Spaghetti,
to the park to run around for a while.

There was Christmas Tree Lane,
with old, old Deodars covered in soft colored lights.

We played Book Lovers’ Scrabble until we got too sleepy to be clever.

The dogs are quiet.

So are we.

It’s a good Christmas, loves.

 

Merry Everything.

 

It *almost* makes it feel like it's snowing outside!
