Guess society took a sabbatical first. Rude of it not to consult your schedule first! [...] Sorry you didn't get to take a break, though. You shouldn't have to be firing on half your cylinders just because everything fell apart around us.

To be perfectly 100% completely and totally honest, [...] not being in church is kind of a relief. And Southern Baptists ain't NEAR as big on Christmas as all that. Doing anything at midnight on Christmas Eve seems like a special kinda torture, especially if there's kids involved. I know plenty of adults who'd be needing their naps by that point!!

I really hope you find the perfect gift for your daughter on Christmas, but also don't you dare get eaten by a cougar before we've even had a real date!!
