[trails off into confused mumbles]

[forward somersault into full leg split]

WAHOOO!!

[collapses into chair]

Ok, gang, take five.

I think my eyes are bleeding.

Well, no matter HOW you spell it, have a Merry Christmas, everyone!

P.S. I just bought another pair of these sleep headphones, so time for another shout-out!

Bluetooth Sleep Headphones

I have the kind of insomnia old-timey bards would write songs about, so I listen to boring audio books on these every night to keep my brain from spinning out of control. Lately I've been wearing them like a sleep mask - like the model here - and WOW, that's helped even more than when I wore them like a headband! These things have been a life saver: comfy enough for side sleeping, not too loud like some of my old speakers, and they only cost $20. Plus my original pair lasted a good 2 years before one of the wires went loose.

Please note that these do run on the big side, but that works out great if you have a big head like me. :D

And from my other blog, Epbot:

Jingle Bell Shocks

Stockings around the Christmas tree

Look so bad that your jaw drops.

Once he got a good look at them

Santa Claus went into shock.

Who comes up with these Christmas cakes?

Have the bakers lost their minds?

Did they drink too much spiced eggnog?

Or are they legally blind?

You will see a glut of flotsam pieces as you neeear

Cakes that just won't make you jolly

Hey, d'you think that might be holly?

Shocking amounts of frosting, these

Might send you right 'round the bend

Will you hold out for better cakes

Or just buy these in the end?

BONUS CAROL OF THE SILVER BELLS:

[sing it with me, now!]
