Weird.

I cannot connect to my friends' page, or half the other sites I'm trying to.

Testing.... ???

Phew.

OK, things finally seem to have returned to normal. All night, my browsing capabilities were rubbish - most of my usual sites would not connect AT ALL.

I am now officially finished work until the new year. I did work late, and miss most of the cocktail party waiting for a fax from the UK (damn Brits - can't escape 'em ;) and did actually work an hour and a half after the party but finally got a glass of JD with ice. This was looked on approvingly *snort* T thinks I'll probably have a glass on my desk constantly during tax season.

...I could do that...

OK, good news front: Dad had good reports at the oncologist. There appears to be no change with his chronic leukemia, still no treatment required. That was cause for a BIG sigh of relief this afternoon.

Jeff recovered the gifts he'd left on the counter at ToysRUs last night, and got Kyle a racing jersey out of the money I'd given him for the purpose.

Kathleen gave me a beautiful soft black shawl for Christmas that reminds me of a puppy, as it did Dave too, apparently, as he asked if it came with a leash. She loved her Xmas present from all of us in the department, which was a gift voucher for her favourite clothing shop and a bottle of Chateauneuf de Pape. And she immediately divined that I'd chosen the wine.

I got a big thank-you for staying late (and sober!) and finishing up a job for A. I have a pile of Norwegians in my cubby for the new year.

Blessed solstice, everyone. Home tomorrow afternoon...

(ETA: Xmas card fron the lovely interlock received - thanks, sweetie!)
