spent christmas eve at M's parents' place.  seabass was a terror all night, scratching at people's rooms and making a racket.  she even played the piano at 200 am.  at 600 am i was woken up by kids crawling on me to get to their stockings (my bed for the evening was next to the tree).  seabass then curled up for the day (i'm not kidding, just about the whole damned day) on a chair and slept. 

M came through with the safety razor that i wanted.  her parents hooked me up with the kiehl's line of shaving creams and i was set.  let me tell you, that razor is a new world of shaving.  it just slid through those whiskers like they were butter.  oh yeah.

also notable were the nice ties i received from M's brother in law and my mom.   also a nice sweater and some socks.  M's parents also got me two sweet highball glasses.  drinks, anyone?
