Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy Whatever Pagan Holiday of Choice you celebrate today! We'll be celebrating with the traditional Christmas meal of shrimp fajitas followed by coconut cake....just me, Wife, and mom-in-law.

It is a white Christmas but it is also raining. Can't say I remember many of these. I'm hoping it lets up a little so I can get my run on.

Time to spike some coffee and get the day started.

It's not raining here, but it's above freezing so outside is a lovely mess of puddles, mud and a little snow.

Girlfriends parents are incoming for the night later. Good thing I'm stocked up on beer!

Well my son actually slept this year and there was no windstorm that blew the trampoline over, so this xmas is already a big improvement over last year.

Merry Christmas fellow simians!

What a rollercoaster ride this Christmas has been. Rapid COVID test for my youngest generated a positive result two days ago, so no Christmas with my MIL and with the cousins. Follow-up PCR test result just dropped, and it's negative! Sweet. I guess we can go see my mom now. But there's no cousins to play with there.

Santa brought the boys a switch for Christmas, but either i can't figure out how to set it up, or the error codes it's throwing are correct and the servers are overwhelmed and we can't download a game for them to play on their fancy new gizmo....

Anyways, hope you're all having a merry day!

Meri Kirihimete Monkeys. I am awake at 3:50am on Boxing Day due to indigestion caused by overconsumption and a cat-induced tickly nose (more annoying tbh). Friends coming to stay for a couple of days later, much carnage anticipated.

I saw an article earlier this week telling parents to set any video games up before Xmas. Servers are likely overloaded.

Here. Girls have been up since 6am. All the adults went to sleep after 12, so the sleep/awake difference is pretty offset. Spent last night putting together a personal trampoline and doll house for Hannah.

Got to watch a cluster fuck of Karen bitchery at Crumble Cookies yesterday afternoon. 2 guys working (vs. normal 5+). Totally overwhelmed by orders and walk-in's. Their order system/they lost track of cookie count and ran out of cookies to fill a couple orders properly, so they were offering full refunds and filling orders with a mix of what they had left. A couple went on full bitch fests because "I put my order in earlier today and if I had known you couldn't do it I wouldn't have bought your cookies". One's order wasn't even in the system, so she either went to the wrong one or didn't complete it online. After 5min of waiting for my order of 4 cookies and listening to them rant, I lost my patience (full wookie moment) and berated the shit out of then for being obnoxious bitches, the day before Xmas, when these two guys are clearly understaffed and overloaded, giving them full refunds and still giving them $80+ orders of cookies, while they are acting as entitled cunts, which explains why the entire Metro thinks HR is full of Karen's. Most left, the last one shut the fuck up then apologized and said thank you when she got her order.

I fucking hate people.

Slow day here, sunny but cold. My hands nearly froze off when I went outside, so I decided to go and take pictures instead of riding the bike. Not sure my fingers would have been any colder biking though. :dead:

That's a pretty airing of grievances, but you should have done the full wookie feats of strength and ripped their arms off.

Doggos fed and since its not currently raining I put them out in the back yard. The grumpy one wants back in after 5 minutes. nope. Espresso then I need to clear some junk off of the center island so I can start prepping the beef short ribs for cooking.

Grandson will be opening his electric moto today, Pretty stoked on that.

@stoney I Am totally with you man, since being retired I have had the luxury of saying whats on my mind all the time and it feels great, some people just need to be reminded they are cunts.

it is odd that the difference between priceline and expedia for flight/car on the same dates next year is expedia being 500.00 more and starting off with a compact as the first option and priceline being cheaper and starting off with a mid size suv as the first option....

Merry Christmas Part Deux! Baby Jeebus was nice to me last night, will install the new crabonz bars today. It is raining with the temps hovering around freezing: 8==> ugly mess outside. Duck is relaxing in the oven and I think I'll install the studded Wrathchilds on le winter bike just to jinx the winter some more.

All the white stuff fell when we was sleeping, allowing us to awaken to a snowy wonderland. Little kiddo has been randomly screaming "Its Christmas" since she woke up. She was unwrapping presents and declaring she loved them without opening the box to see what's inside.

Good times.

Merry holidays monkeys.
