- The boys had a good Christmas morning, I believe, though this is almost certainly Aaron’s last year to believe in Santa Claus. Nathan, calling on subtlety and understatement I didn’t realize he yet had, did a good job preserving it for Aaron without overselling it.
- Lea and I got a new couch for Christmas, and exchanged smaller stuff yesterday. She got me a pillow I probably wouldn’t have paid for that is shaping up to be a great gift.
- Dad had inch-thick strip steaks and shrimp for Christmas dinner. Awesome.
- Even so, I arrested my weight loss backslide in a week that included that, as well as movie popcorn. Good for me. Now, full reverse.
- Church is extra-special on Christmas morning.
- Nathan got six new video games from various directions yesterday, and yet still found it in himself to get pissed at me when I wouldn’t let him completely deplete his wallet to purchase a seventh today. (It did please me and mostly redeem the moment when he came back about 15 minutes later and told me I was right.)
- Samuel Adams Chocolate Bock tastes exactly like a Hershey bar made into a beer. If that sounds appealing to you, then it’s a slam-dunk.
- Today I reorganized my battery drawer and charger layout. I did the dishes. I’m going to cook tonight. I don’t see much else productive happening.
