–24 hours of ‘a christmas story’ starts on tbs tomorrow at 7pm.
–kyle orton rules.
–urbantherapy will be open for business on christmas day. you should know the rules by now — call us before you make the trip so we can clear off floor space for you, and give us enough time to put on pants.
–hearing my brother riff on market day is hilarious. sometimes i wish i could record our phone conversations so i can play them for people. instead, you’ll just have to ask me about it.
–i didn’t drink on my birthday. i actually didn’t drink at all last weekend. i will, of course, be making up for it this weekend. and in case you’re wondering, i’m still accepting drinks/presents/tributes as befitting my status of queen of the universe. ;-)
–gambling tomorrow night is going to be awesome. i can feel it. we’re all going to come out winners. you should join us. it’ll be fun. and we’re going to sing happy birthday to jesus at midnight, which should (maybe) ease any guilt you may have about not going to midnight mass or something.
–i have, courtesy of my fbc boss, a gingerbread rubber duck. i’m serious. it’s like a gingerbread man…but in the form of a rubber duck. there’s also a santa duck and a couple other ones that i can’t think of right now. i mean, there were a good half-dozen rubber or soap ducks in this gift basket. but the gingerbread duck is my favorite.
–i’m going back to d.c. for another conference next month. my fbc boss is also going. hooray separate rooms! is it too soon to figure out how far the closest liquor store-type place is from the hotel?
