My entire family is either in Tucson, Arizona, or Siesta Key Florida tonight celebrating Christmas Eve. Me and D? chillin', literally, in cold-ass Flagstaff after I get off work today. Ahhh well, I got nothin' to bitch about at all. I have a job, the heat is on in the house, and the sun is shinin'....plus I have a couple of surprises for my daughter and D that I can't wait for them to open up. I swear to God it took me 30+ years to figure out that giving Christmas presents is certifiably, unequivocally, undeniably just as fun as receiving them.
So, I'll put in my time today, and Christmas Day through the weekend at the Sawmill, and then celebrate proper after that. Salmon on the grill tonight is a start, followed by a local party tomorrow night, and a trip to Tucson next week for family, presents, and mountain/road riding. Somewhere I'll squeeze in consumption of a few tasty cordials Steven T. Nejedlo style.....maybe some Cointreau, Chambord, or really ramp it up with a glass of dark, sweet rum.
As my brother Fish says when I ask him how things are goin', "Just livin' the dream CB". Me too Fish.
ps - does anyone see the writing on the wall with Brett Favre? As a Minnesotan, I have to say "It could be worse".....but I, like most Minnesotans think it will get worse. If that jag off f*cks up the season at the end I'll........
Merry Christmas!
I'm counting my blessings and know that my "complaints" are so minor compared to what others experience.
ReplyDeleteCordial tonight: Sambuca ala Everton Darling... will have three whole lucky coffee beans in it. The coffee beans will of course be from Fuel Cafe.
As far as your ps... welcome to December: Farve style. You know I told you about this before. As did any Jets fan that you may know.
