And the others, too

I've had a head cold since about the 18th, which means it's been a whiskey Christmas. I will probably spend today listening to Beatles re-masters, playing Settlers of Catan, finishing the slippers I'm making for Ciro, and watching football documentaries. I love football documentaries, even though I don't watch football. Similarly, I like reading about mountain climbing expeditions, but have no desire to go near a mountain.

Catchphrase of the holiday: Why does Rice play Texas? We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things.

Typically, going to the moon is substituted out for other resolutions, such as getting a glass of water.
