(no subject)

I have some very whacked line karma these days. Obviously the universe is trying for a good balance, because every time I manage to bypass a scary long line (like at the airport, where I used the express check-in, or at the CD store today, where I found the secret empty till), I or the people I am with end up in lines where people just walk right ahead of them, as happened today at the post office. I think, however, this was the last of the shopping that needed to be done, so hopefully the end of the lining-up.

And, honestly, it was kind of fun. I did almost all my shopping before I left Toronto, but today I had a little list from each of my parents of stuff that they'd forgotten to get, and after eating All the Japanese Food in the World, we wandered off with our attack route all planned out, and made short work of the list. I think it would have been weird if I hadn't bought anything while I was here.

Now I'm going to go finish wrapping stocking stuffers, and then I'm going to curl up in a chair with the cat and read a book, because that's what holidays are all about.
