The devil made me undo it

Last night, I dreamt I was watching 2 criminals being hung beside each other. One accepted his fate without any fuss. The other one fought like a cat being put into a bathtub of water. He was still struggling against the noose and evading all efforts to be subdued when I woke up.Which leads to the below update.

That feeling of glowing relaxation turned out to be a fake out. Or maybe I was actually relaxed, but my subconscious freaked out from the crazy new feeling and decided to wind me back up. However, however, I fought the law and I sort of won. What I mean to say is, the past 2 weeks have been a Mexican wrestling match between my propensity toward being tense and my desire to feel relaxed. I won't recount the damn details but I think I beat being tense down to a whimper. It's still knotted up somewhere in my small intestine but that will do for now.

I've got to say, I have been enjoying the Christmas season. I've been keeping very busy, mostly making and remaking a certain present about a thousand times but I got that little bugger right finally, today actually and I say Hurrah. That's the last of the presents now. All done, all wrapped and all good. I had some mania yesterday and made a skirt out of nowhere, and it's actually not bad. I'll wear it at Christmas and take a photo in case you are even mildly interested. If you aren't, you can avert your eyes at that point, I'll warn you before hand.

All that's left is a little baking, some packing and then Saturday, the new adventure of an 8 hour road trip with a very active cat will begin. Our cat's new official name is El Diablo. It's suits him very well. We still call him Kitty mostly but officially, his full length name is Prince Diablo Hotdog Zanzibar. I stole part of that from Family Guy. It comes from an episode where Peter takes up writing erotica. He names one of his characters Captain Leroy Hotdog Zanzibar and it is one of the funniest things I have ever heard on TV.

So what else? Well, else-wise, ain't nothing else. Happy holidays hotdogs!
