Pre-Christmas Nervousness in PUBLIC

I'll admit. There's a metric shit-ton of writing that I have to catch up on, but there's not nearly enough time to do so until the Holidays are over.

In the meantime, I'm experiencing a bit of the jitters because I'm anxiously awaiting the largest of my Hubby's Christmas gifts to arrive. I couldn't order it until Friday (because of payday) and even with the extra that I shelled out for the expedited shipping by Christmas Eve, it's worrisome because it's not under the tree.

Come on, UPS man... don't fail me now, brotha!

In other news... um... the tree is up:

We've added some unusual ornaments this year, which include (but are not limited to) The Christmas Pickle:

... and the "Hot for 2013/Inappropriately Funny" Miley Cyrus Christmas Ornament, which I hastily made myself:

So I guess what I'm trying to say is, "Merry Christmas, Y'all!" Hope your time is spent laughing and making new memories with family and friends, and that you sneak a little sweet smoochin' underneath the mistletoe!
