i had a great non-holiday holiday.
tried shabu shabu for the first time. loved it. saw the golden compass. loved it. stayed up late learning about web development and tasting honey. played bridge with lovely people. saw family and kids.
i did have a next day holiday hangover from something i ate, i.e. - 12 hours of an aggressive headache and extreme nausea. i ate so many new foods, i'm not sure what caused it. but it's mostly gone now. :) |

i wish that there was a secular name for Christmas.
the christian solstice holiday? the christian winter feast? the american solstice?
i wish there was a way i could say "i'm having a great christmas" but have it be clear that i'm not partaking in christmas.
the way one could say "i'm having a great saturday/friday/sunday" without saying "i'm having a great sabbath." |

i can't find a good photo on the web of that house in JP with the christmas lights.
it makes me happy whenever i drive by it.
boston.com: "I get letters from people from all over saying thank you for the lights," said Luberto's wife, Isora. "Sometimes, they don't write the address on the envelopes. They just put 'Castle of Lights,' and they still get here." Last year, NStar workers installed a special high-capacity transformer that has let Luberto to aspire to new heights: 500,000 lights, twice as many as last year. |
