Working through some holidays

I'm going to work this week, in between Christmas and the New Year. Although I don't celebrate the Christmas holiday, I completely enjoy having a couple of days off surrounding that day. In fact, I might enjoy that time off more than many people do, since I don't have all that holiday stress that people wear from December 1-25. However, I find it pretty irritating to go from a few very easy days of no work to 3 in-between days of work, knowing that I'll have some nice time off coming up. My motivation at the workplace this week is about as scarce as staff in my workplace this week.

And wow! that's a whiny paragraph! Keep Moving, Miss Kate.

This evening, I went with my family to a restaurant that we'd not tried before. Passion fruit juice + tequila + ginger + jalepeno is a good combination. Cheese + wild mushrooms is another combo I recommend. I ate almost as much cheese tonite as I ate at NYE a few years ago. On that particular New Year's Day, I woke up with a belly ache that lasted until nighttime. Hopefully I'll do better tomorrow, since I have to go to work and all. And since I'm doing enough bellyaching already.

I'm reading The Life of Pi -- and it's g-double-o-d. If I stop now, I might be able to read a chapter before going to sleep. So, bon nuit.

I get the feeling that for you, tequila + thumb & forefinger + cap moving in a counterclockwise direction is a good combination.

I'm also reading "The Life of Pie" and have gained 15 pounds so far. I'm a good reader.
