I like christmas
Take good care to keep relations civil
It's decent in the first of gentlemen
To speak friendly, Even to the devil

My feet are half-solid ice, but I managed to find (and haul home) good gifts for both parents. Day well-spent

Spotify Premium's Discover Weekly feature finally paid off for itself.

It suggested me a French R&B artist. I actually like the sound/voice, and I understand about 60% of the lyrics, which means this amy actually help me in my eternal quest to improve my French.

Good thing to happen on the brink of New Year (and yet another inevitable attempt from me to read more in French to try to improve that language skill)

My friend's husband makes furniture and is making me a bespoke bookcase, a big chunky rustic style thing. He's also carving me some quotes in runes into it (I dunno, it just tickles me that I and very few other people will know what they say).

After the mega family Christmas marathon I am finally alone. In Swansea visiting the "in laws". We can't stay at Mr Pigdogs mothers house so have rented an apartment for the weekend. Poor little me has to stay in with the sprog while he goes out to visit his family. The hardest part is hiding how happy I am with this set up. He endured 8 days of my mother and in return I get to sit in watching TV on my own! And all because he's allergic to his mums dog.

I did my usual Boxing day/week wandering tour today, where I randomly wander between stores, not really needing to buy anything, just looking out for any extraordinary deals.

Canada Computers had this ridiculous water-cooled gaming desktop set-up.... for $9k CAD. With a sticker "Financing Available".

I instantly felt better about my life knowing that no matter what small issues I might have messing with my groove day-to-day, nothing in my life can possibly be bad enough to make me want to forget it by splurging on smth like that.

Chicken noodle soup. Yes, again.

This time my hangover's not quite banished yet, but aside from the headache, I'm certainly feeling way better.

Won our first playoff game 6:1. I scored the 2nd goal, which is the first goal I've scored in a game since.... summer of 2014? I think?

Anyhow, feels good.

It’s still crazy cold right now at 27 but thank goodness there is no wind to speak of. I had to just go inside last night and put my fire out early due to the 10mph north wind cutting into my bones. Tonight should be lovely stargazing time. Sirius is directly overhead now beaming steady blue light. Jupiter and Mars are beginning to rise(7 mins from each other) just shortly after I go to bed so in about a month they should be visible steadily for me. Gonna be cool seeing them that close to each other. May stay up an hour later so I can try to see them top the trees tonight.

It will be -13 on Saturday here.
I survived the Permian and all I got was this t-shirt.

I know I been watching the weather app and I was honest the other the day when I said if was this cold here I shuddered to think what anyone north of me would be feeling this entire week. Yikes

But I’m from Canada as far as Abyss and his death platforms know.

I love the new workout leggings I bought myself for Christmas. Also, my old winter coat fits perfectly again. Happy Puck is happy :p

Happy to confirm that Star Wars: The Last Jedi remains amazing on a repeat viewing, if anything I enjoyed it more. :p

A few reasons.

Got a haircut; it's Xmass eve; and because of the latter, i have absolutely no reasons to venture outdoors today.
