I just wanted the timestamp to note that I'm awake at 3am on Christmas, thanks to the drunk kid who hit a pole across the street and downed some power lines.
Well, that and putting together the biggest flipping' dollhouse you've ever seen in your life.

It will all be worth it Christmas Day!

Pix!

My Grandfather built a plywood dollhouse for my sister that was four feet high, with staircases, working doors, brickface exterior, hinged roof to allow access, etc, all designed to look like a Dutch canal-front row house. He cut all the pieces in his factory in the Netherlands and brought them with him to the USA on a visit where he spent days putting it all together. It was quite impressive when done.

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

I was awakened at 0200, 0230, 0330, 0400, 0500, and finally rolled out of bed to the calls of excited kids at 0545.  I loved doing that to my parents too, so I guess it's all just Christmas karma.

Merry Christmas, gents!  I hope your kids haven't driven you crazy and your guests haven't worked your last nerve :)

I can feel you Brant. In another galaxy, far, far away, I once put a swingset together on X-Mas eve. With some internal fortification of course. And it actually worked when I was finished.

I want to give a Christmas love punch to the face to the person who thought up the use of a billion tiny rubber bands and plastic things to hold a Barbie to a cardboard sheet of packaging.

Yeah that packaging really is annoying

I wasn't, but the kid who was cuffed and stuffed for DUI (in front of his parents, who came out to see what happened to their car) is going to need to.

Glad he didn't hurt anyone!

Brant, looks like the little one is happy.  When she gets a little older, are you getting her started on Memoir '44 at least?

My fiance fell off a step ladder last night straightening out a bow on the front porch and twisted her ankle.  The swelling was severe so we went to the ER (it's just a strain thankfully).  She was upset and saying that she "ruined Christmas" but it was nothing- an hour and a half at ER and we were home.  But that kid Brant...that is a Christmas show stopper.  Glad too that nobody was hurt physically but the emotional scaring will be around for a long time because of some poor decision making.  Your daughter is adorable and that dollhouse must of been a nightmare to assemble!
