caught up in your headlights, frozen again

Apologies for not blogging the last couple of nights - I would attribute it to the head injury I sustained when [censored] shot me in the forehead with a dart gun a few days ago, but I think I've recovered from that (unless I have a secret brain bleed, in which case I haven't). I have had absolutely nothing to report - [censored] is still sick, which means tings are very boring around here. I was looking forward to spicing things up by having some houseguests this weekend, but the houseguests decided that they didn't want to get exposed to the plague, and it was also clear that exposing a plague victim to some houseguests probably wasn't a good call either.

So, our broader family Christmas is officially canceled, which is a bummer, but it was the right call. I was going to spend today and tomorrow cleaning - and I probably still should - but the lack of immediate houseguests made me lazy. Instead, I did a bunch of desk / paperwork-type stuff (still worthwhile!), messed around, ran some errands, and watched the very tail end of the Iowa State bowl game (the Pop Tarts bowl, which was an absurd theme that the Pop Tarts crew really ran with).

Then I made some pasta to use up a bunch of mushrooms and cream that were going to go bad. [Censored] and I ate it while watching the end of 'Pirates of the Caribbean' (still a banger), followed by Nate Bargatze's latest comedy special, which was great.

And now I need to sleep - or perhaps read and pretend I'm on vacation for one night only. Goodnight!
