Now I know how my mum felt at Christmas: exhausted from running around turning the crank to run the day. Got up at 2pm (after fourteen hours' bad sleep) and opened the presents. I gave [livejournal.com profile] redcountess DVDs of Kill Bill vol 1 & 2 and Simon Schama's A History of Britain, a Giant Microbe bed bug, pink Jack Skellington earrings to go with the forthcoming hair colour and a Pet Plant (a small cactus in a keyring); she gave me a stovetop coffee pot, Poppy Z. Brite's biography of Courtney Love (signed!), the O'Reilly Mac OS X Tiger for Unix Geeks, a cashmere scarf, a model car (a red 4WD for my mid-life crisis) and this year's Gil Elvgren calendar. We gave [livejournal.com profile] narnee three pairs of earrings and [livejournal.com profile] _nicolai_ gave us a box of Lush goodies.

We ate all [livejournal.com profile] quiet000001's cookies last night. They were incredibly nice.

I made dinner, successfully mostly cooked a chicken and watched Doctor Who with the girls. We are now sitting here eating and drinking and watching House and wearing silly hats.

Sounds like a happy Christmas. May there be many more days of wearing silly hats!
