Christmas at home delayed
Dec. 24th, 2009 05:24 pmI had today off unexpectedly, as one of the people who had the day decided they weren't going out of town after all, and I was next on the waitlist.
Good thing too, as I have never seen so many places close so early on Christmas Eve. Several of them without even a note saying they were closing early--including Subway!
Coming home, I discovered that due to the heavy snow, the Christmas celebration for my family is pushed back to next Friday. :-{ Fortunately, thanks to my internet friends, I have some presents to open tomorrow anyway. Maybe I'll take in the new Sherlock Holmes movie, though the previews made it look a little too focused on sex humor for my tastes. And I'll be able to hit Target for their post Xmas candy sale on Saturday.
Yeah, I'm a little disappointed, but not as much as one of my co-workers, who wasn't able to go home to California for the first time in twenty years due to a really bad set of circumstances.
Speaking of co-workers, we finally got an address to send cards to Nicole; she's still too weak for visitors though, apparently.
Oh, and one last package made it to the post office today! Thanks,![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
greenhawk! Looking forward to seeing what's inside.
