Who was no more than two.
Xmas shopping is progressing at a satisfactory pace. Our amassing of presents for friends and family is nearing completion.
I spent a large amount of time today wandering the mall collecting gifts for my lovely wife.
The transit strike is still going on. The union are still a bunch of assholes.
Work is coming along. Changes on the horizon, but all are of a hopefully positive variety.
Today I wrote out my xmas list in shiny metallic crimson ink. Of my own volition. I'm funny that way.
Today I was also accused of being boring. I don't think that's fair or reasonable.
Some of the xmas cards we've been receiving have been more overtly religious than others. The things I let family get away with, y'know?
RJA returns this Thursday. It's exciting. I'm looking forward to meeting his beard.
My back hurts. (See above, re: wandering around a mall for an extended period of time.)
A friend from work, The Jeeb, now has a nemesis. A well selected nemesis, indeed.
And finally, to be really really cryptic, exciting news has come forth from good friends. Exciting!

1. I don't like the use of the word "Xmas" in place of Christmas, except when it is done humorously in a deliberately repetitive fashion on a comical television cartoon show.
2. Unions suck. And they're always run by old people who have nothing better to do than complain. I know--in Canada my apartment building is full of them.
3. I am sorry that I did not send you a religious Christmas card this year, but perhaps i can make up for it by saying something like "let's put the CHRIST back in CHRISTMAS!"
4. I do indeed have a beard.
5. I have two nemeses whom I like to use as a measure of my own success.
1. I am aware.
2. Agreed.
3. When you include a religious sentiment in something like an xmas card, it is tasteful and restrained. I can't recall seeing a random bible verse or exhortation to embrace the Messiah being gratuitously appended to any missive you have sent me.
4. Indeed.
5. That's what they're for.
You won't be getting a religious card from me. You might be getting a card with a picture of my goat "Dewbee" (ignore the spelling, think pot) with a cigar and a santa hat on... It might also say "My name's Dewbee, Merry Fucking Christmas" when you open it.
Genius.
This is the entire reason I got a goat.
