Happy Christmas!

[Glaurung]

I'm not sure I'll get the chance to say this later on today, and for some people here it's nearly Christmas Day already.

I hope everyone reading has a joyful Christmas, whether or not you celebrate, and whatever you're doing at this time of year.

[Jubal]

Indeed, Merry Christmas to all! 

[Son of the King]

Have a great Christmas everyone!

[comrade_general]

Yay.

[Jubal]

It's actually Christmas here now, so I put the frontpage thing up.

Once again, Merry Christmas to all

[comrade_general]

Happy Hanukkah!

Happy Festival of Festival Theft!

On this day in the calendar, it is traditional to take, appropriate and edit other people's holiday celebrations to your hearts content, at which point they will probably claim to be grievously offended despite the change making almost no difference to their lives and despite the fact that their belief system stole it off someone else beforehand anyway. Some more traditionalist observers of this festival still try to uphold the old tradition of enforcing the newly stolen festivals by fire and the sword, but in most cases these days a more symbolic form of celebrating by sanctimoniously grouching about other people's way of doing things is more common. 

(It is getting on for half two, I am still coughing badly and feeling very rough and not awfully Christmassy )

It's warm windy and wet here so meh. Still much looking forward to after Christmas.

[Jubal]

I just don't want to think about there being an after Christmas

[comrade_general]

I only want there to be an after Christmas.

[Jubal]

I have to do all the stuff I was supposed to do before Christmas after Christmas plus all the stuff I was supposed to do then anyway and I'm not sure if I physically have time and aaaaaaah

Am happy for you though

[comrade_general]

w00t!

Sorry for you though.

[Jubal]

I'll get through it somehow. Its just a lot of pressure and the results feel more arbitrary than anything else so I don't even know if working flat out on it will get me where I want to be. :/

Advice for both Jub and cg. If in doubt, add whiskey.
