What is up with Braintree<\/a>? I mean who frick thought, “Gee, Braintree would be a great name for a city?”… Note to Adam: A blue shirt and khaki pants with a gray sweater over it is still a blue shirt and khaki pants…I may be suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. I find myself oddly longing to be shipped off to a warehouse<\/a> to wrap presents like Santa’s elf on speed. I mean, what will I do with myself? How does the rest of the (American) world keep themselves occupied between Thanksgiving and Christmas?…Note to Martin: Age is only in your head until you start to experience back pain. Then it’s in your head and in your back…Why is Adam’s weblog<\/a> still<\/i> getting more hits than mine (don’t you click on that link! This is a test. You need to prove to me that you like me better) when he writes like three sentences once a week? And I know this because I check up on his stats–in a very noncompetitive way, of course… Does anyone else remember when people didn’t count “days till Christmas” but “shopping days till Christmas” and it didn’t include Sundays? Or am I making that up?… I read in a cooking magazine that some people “overdress” their sweet potatoes with marshmallows (or is it smarshmallows?). How can marshmallows ever be considered “overdressed”? What isn’t<\/i> improved with the addition of marshmallows?…Including today, there are just 12 days–shopping and nonshopping–until Adam’s 30th birthday, unless I counted wrong (how many days until the 8th?). Or are you supposed to count the actual day of birthday in there? I’m never clear on that….Cold-eeze<\/a> are magic…What the heck are we going to do on New Year’s Eve?…Why do you think our Founding Fathers decided to pick a state name–Massachusetts–that’s so hard to spell?…A sign of blogging too much? I keep trying to put ital tags–<i>and<\/i>–in my novel instead of just italing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
