@achewood I am composing a tone poem about eagles, lawnmowers, and Ted Nugent. It is composed only of the sounds of those things.

What would you like for Christmas?

Me, I just want to feel the sunshine on my face.

I would love if, as wonderful as it is to be someplace warm instead of St Louis where it is 15 degrees, it were below 60 in Charlotte for Christmas. Below 50 would be even better.

I just want things not to get any worse.

At first, that doesn't sound like asking for much. But, since change is the only thing that we can be sure of, it's actually an impossible wish. Things will surely either get better or worse.

Shush yo' mouth, child! We had windows open yesterday and last night, and it was beautiful. I will love to be able to do something outside next weekend if it plays out.

Debt forgiveness?

How completely not modern American Christianity/how completely Christ-like THAT would be for Christmas.

I concur. Put me down for THAT shit.

I want this hat.

I also want my wife and the various grandparents to not get on each others' nerves too much this week.

Ugh, I just had to get up at 5 am and rush a pug with seizures to the emergency vet, so I guess now my Christmas wish is that my dog does not have a brain tumor or anything else of the fatal sort.

It's Rose, the second pug.

She is home now and fine for the moment. I have an appointment with a neurologist tomorrow, but then we are all supposed to leave town for Christmas, which is very nervewracking. Very bad timing. I would just skip the trip and stay home, but we are visiting my mother in law who apparently might die soon, and then my sister whose husband recently left her and my nephew, who is five, who is reportedly extremely excited that we are coming.

So, make everyone hate me, or risk being no where near an open vet office in a strange place if there's another emergency? I would rather go rent an apartment right next door to the emergency vet and not leave the house till we see if it happens again, but I guess that is not practical. I am trying to remind myself that you just can't control everything in life, you can only do your best. I can't never leave the house again.

This is particularly frustrating because we almost never go anywhere for Christmas. Why couldn't this happen some other year, dammit.

I hope its nothing serious, Wombat. We had a doberman once who got seizures all of a sudden, that wasn't cool. It turned out it was some form of dog diabetes or something. We just had to put a little sugar in her food every day.
