Oh how nice!

I got Bob all the Seinfeld DVDs I could find. I didn't find Season 3.

I'm trying to de-stuff enough to get to sleep.

Hey. Ali, did you have a chrissy holiday?

17966. alistairconnor - 12/28/2005 2:55:23 PM

Five-day weekend with the girls.

We had a great time, messing around at home mostly.

I invited their mother to join us for Christmas Eve. We owed that to the kids : they believe in Christmas. It went very well, all things considered.

O fer chissakes, it was horrible and you know it.

Strained at best. Hope you took photos.

I am well into a 3-day drunk. I hate the freaking holidays.

I spent $2819.47 on liquor this year.

$2606.40 in 2004.
$2746.27 in 2003.
$1837.34 in 2002.
$1125.46 in 2001.
$1278.03 in 2000.


2003 really sucked, didn't it?

17969. alistairconnor - 12/29/2005 10:26:46 AM

I'll tell you what, you're right about 2003.

But wrong about Christmas. I probably enjoyed it more than the Ex, because I'm better at keeping the strands of life separate (or ignoring what's really going on, if you prefer)

I know what you mean about the holidays. I prefer to avoid taking more time off work than I have to, at this time of year.

Did your boy have a good christmas?

17970. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 10:53:59 AM

yep, he did indeed, thanks for asking.

now if it would snow....

17971. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:04:35 AM

I got him a sled with a steering wheel and brakes. It came in a big-ass box and there is no snow, however.

Child, cousins, cats, have been playing in the box.

17972. alistairconnor - 12/29/2005 11:20:59 AM

Ah. We had the cold but only a dusting of snow over Christmas. Now we've got the real thing. I assume the kids are sledding at their mother's place. We had a hell of a good day last week at a little ski station.

I've been riding my bike through a snow-covered pretty city. Tonight I'll be taking the GF home to the big house in the hills, if the roads are clear.

17973. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:49:36 AM

Ah, indeed.
big house reminds me of brother going to prison.
He was proud he made it to the 'big house'

I almost wrote something even more awful, but maybe he's not dead and he is getting better.

17974. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:51:10 AM

merry christmas!

17975. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:51:41 AM

17976. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:52:02 AM

17977. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:52:29 AM

17978. Ulgine Barrows - 12/29/2005 11:53:06 AM

Happy New Year!

The European snowstorm reached us a couple of hours ago. It's not too bad, at least not here and not yet, but reports from the south talk about serious snowdrift problems on the plains.

17981. alistairconnor - 12/29/2005 3:30:21 PM

We want photos of course.

17982. Magoseph - 12/29/2005 3:55:32 PM

Ali, I just found thes pictures from a place very near where I was born:

17983. Magoseph - 12/29/2005 4:04:59 PM

Le Château de Grignan date du XIIème siècle ainsi que la tour de Crest au bas de laquelle je suis née.

Ah, well, every winter, I get weepy--don't mind me.
