Happy Holidays to all.

Leftover from the county Democrats' holiday party. It takes up too much room in the frig, so that's my holiday beverage until it's gone.

I'm so glad I can say that again.

Right now I am on a Prosecco buzz. I got it at church. I have a friend who directs a church choir and who needed an extra singer, so I said I'd help out. They had wine after the service. They always have wine. They are Episcopalians. I might rethink my church-going habits. Jesus loves me, I guess.

Happy holidays, everyone. Merry Christmas. Happiness from Solstice to Solstice.

Remember that axial tilt is the reason for the season, and that while all is darkest now, light is returning. Hopefully this metaphor will hold up in the new year, and the mad king will clothe his nakedness in a new straightjacket and will be flown out of Washington for good.
