Dear friendses, the gifts are also out. That was some most impressive speed-packing, I must admit. Half an hour to pack four boxes, sign the cards, and race out to the post office.
Also, lovely card from
eowyn_unquendor came in the mail yesterday.
In other news, I have passed the ACI exam and I am now officially a certified competitive intelligence professional. Fear me.
I am flying to visit my parents in Omaha tomorrow morning, so today shall be a very, very busy evening. Ever celebrate Christmas Eve on your hands and knees scrubbing bathrooms? I thought so. Everything happens for the first time some day, though.
Have a very Merry Christmas, or whatever else you may be celebrating right now, and I shall be back to wish you all a very Happy New Year when the time comes. Cheers.
