Two More Days

We are down to the holiday wire and, somehow, I wrapped the final present this morning. We had a few things delivered yesterday and today before work I took them to my wrapping station in the cellar and cranked them out.

The Wrapping Is Complete.

I still need to go out and pick up one or two little things that are fun but not required. I will do that either tonight after work or tomorrow. I am off work tomorrow. Actually, I am off work until Friday. I was going to work in the office today but I am still sick so in order to not screw up anyone else’s holiday I stayed home. I am well enough to work, but not well enough to be in public guilt free. If I do go out at some point tonight I will wear a mask.

One more work day to go and then I am off for xmas eve, xmas, and Boxing Day… even though the US doesn’t celebrate Boxing Day. Whatevs, right? HoHoHo.

Cold

I checked the weather when I woke up. It was about 6:30am. The outside temperature was a whopping nine degrees Fahrenheit. Lovely.

I went down cellar to start my day with a bottle of water and some morning exercise and the little room thermometer I keep down here said it was 58.7 degrees. Lovely.

Winter sucks. Winter blows.

Superman Trailer

This came out yesterday. It’s the trailer for the upcoming Superman movie. Word on the street is that it is not a reboot, it is not an origin story (again), it is just assuming we all know who this guy is and it’s giving us a new story.

I am so here for that.

Fingers crossed that James Gunn finally gives us the DC movie-verse that we have been hoping for all of these years. It doesn’t have to out do Marvel. It just has to be good.

I am ready for it. I want the movie now.

Century

Okay, folks, this one is important. We all have to work together to pull this off.

My wife and I just watched a thing about Dick Van Dyke’s 99th birthday. Remember a couple of years ago when we as a society vowed to ensure that Betty White would reach her 100th birthday and then we failed with just a few days to go?

Now we have to make sure that Dick Van Dyke makes it. We have to pull out all the stops. We have to cure every disease and ensure he is safe from all potential accidents. We MUST make sure that he reaches his 100th birthday. It is a moral imperative. It is A MUST.

Then once we successfully get him into the triple digits we will have to turn our attention to Mel Brooks who will turn 99 next summer.

You all heard me. Now get out there and get to work!
