right now, trying to get brain off work. Christmas Eve was spent taking care of a few last shopping trips (boy was the jewelry store crowded with last minute men  ), then suffering through my in-laws annual white elephant Christmas eve dinner event made to last as long as possible.
I have a few computer games I'd like to fool around with but then there are some projects (non-code related) to be completed this week.
Sleep. Getting more of that too.

I went to some friends for their annual "Morning after Christmas Eve" brunch. Then "The Desolation of Smaug" with my sister and her family in the afternoon, followed by dinner at her home.

In traditional style:
Replace the dimmer switch in the kitchen.
Put on door-stops.
Sorted and put away some tools and things.
Cursing that there's nothing to watch on TV except Xmas special and giddy nauseating news items being delivered by even giddier and more nauseating media personalities.
Also, ate some multi-bacterial yogurt to offset effects of a broad-spectrum anti-biotic that wiped out my intestinal flora (except for an evil one, of course).
What else would one do?

Thought I'd add to the Christmas messages seeing as it is now Christmas here.
Happy Christmas people of CP!

Give it a day or two and my sphincter may recover.

Let that be a lesson to you. Avoid shopping in Brighton.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Generally the site is good however...
Unfortunately the description of a Christmas cracker(click on the circle over the UK) is fairly inaccurate:
"When you pull the tabs, the tube bursts with a loud snap! Inside are paper hats, toys and candy to enjoy during Christmas night."
I have never seen any sort of food or candy in a cracker and it omits one of the most important items in the cracker which is a piece of paper with a usually terrible joke written on it.
