Hi Ho, Ho, Ho...

...it's time to end the computer-fu wars for now and head off to work. When my shift's over I'll have two consecutive days off for the first time in about two years, which may account for the extra measure of holiday spirit I've been feeling lately.

More likely, though, the holidays seem brighter because I'm so damn broke this year. Having completely opted out of the commercial side of the season, I'm actually enjoying myself more than I have in years. I don't recommend being broke, particularly, but if you're a silver lining seeker, there seems to be one there.

I'll check in later if somebody actually makes some news or something.
