Hmm, it's midnight.

Husband (college faculty! PhD!) is administering an exam in an advanced CS class at 8 a.m., and it's a 45-minute drive to campus (including time to park and walk from Middle o'Nowhere Parking to the building, etc). He's currently killing aliens in a video game, not sleeping like a normal adult would be when they have to get up in 6 hours.

I'm drinking wine, drawing fanart, and idly contemplating the plot of my Yuletide.

Sometimes, I find myself wondering when this whole "growing up" thing is going to happen. We're in our mid-30s, for pete's sake -- IT'S SUPPOSED TO HAVE HAPPENED BY NOW!

(ETA: Not that I actually think this is a bad thing, mind you. It's just kind of disconcerting to realize that when my mother was my age, she had three kids and was, well. MOM.)

Never 'grow up!' Where's the fun in that? *g*

Hope you're having a good December, temperatures and snow notwithstanding. Though playing around in the snow would be more fun if we had a little more of it maybe... mmm... wine. Always makes Fairbanks winter nights better.

Cheers!

Heh, yeah, I just ETA'd in something to that effect. *g*

Alcohol. It makes the winter bearable. *g*

(Edited to add: I've realized that I have had next to no alcohol the entire semester and just drank two glasses of red wine. I should probably be careful on the Internet tonight! Also, I cannot seem to spell "alcohol" correctly on the first try, which is probably a bad sign.)

Alcohol definitely makes the winter more bearable. Though a dog team would help matters as well, in my book. Aww, I miss mushing.

And damn, I have no wine... Will maybe rectify that situation tomorrow. *g*
