First: does MTV actually play music videos anymore? I mean, Thing2 (the baby brother) has been watching it for hours, and all I've seen is mindless "reality" television catering to his "dude, that was *sweet*" demographic. I guess they figured that music was too divisive.
Second: Thing1 (the middle brother) is bringing home a girlfriend he's apparently "crazy" about. Mom says he's desperate for Mom to like her, which... is my brother doing the pre-engagement parental shuffle? I may die if this is the case.
Third: Kat, who rocks like a rocking thing of rockingness, has been sending me [Channing pictures]. In accordance with the natural law of hotness sharing, I have made [icons], free to a good home. I suspect they would have turned out a little better had I been on my desktop (with its bigger screen and a mouse instead of a trackpad), but it's Channing, so not much can go wrong.
Fourth: Dad gets gift baskets from clients, because he's kind of a financial crisis manager for them. One such gift basket wasn't a basket at all, but a winter coat, with waterproof shell and fleece liner. It's a wee bit small for Dad and he's not exactly crazy about the company (which splashed their logo all over the chest of the jacket), so I have a new jacket! Awesome. Just in time for skiing, too.
Fifth: I get steamed crabs tomorrow for Dad's birthday. I win at LIFE.
Sixth: Tell me interesting and/or crazy things about your family at Christmas, either this year or in years past!
ETA Seventh: I am apparently Baron Drew the Spurious of Withering Glance [get yours!]
I think I can live with that.
