We are watching PROFESSIONAL ARM WRESTLING on ESPN2. It is so cool. There are referees, and rules, and lingo and commentators, and strategies, and everything! The current world champion has a huge right arm and a normal left arm. "You can see the intensity in his eyes! He's like a coiled snake!"
The really funny thing? The contestants all hug after each match. No kidding.
By the way, who do I talk to about getting an extension on Christmas? Despite the fact that the holiday season started being hyped in mid-October, here we are with nine days left, and I AM NOT READY! Forget about Chanukah; that started yesterday so I'm even more ill-prepared for that. Perhaps New Years gifts for everyone this year?

Meredithanne42 gave me the bright idea of sending out January cards this year. I *want* to send out holiday cards, but it's clear I'm not going to make it. (For Hanukah, does it still count if they arrive on the last day?) So M said I should just send them all out for January, b/c it's a boring month otherwise. :-P (Except for my birthday ;) )

January cards - what a lovely idea! It brings a ray of sunshine into an otherwise bleak month (except when we are all partying down to celebrate the birth of Zandperl - ooh, sounds pagan!), not to mention you can get your cards for 50% off. I completely support this idea. Meredithanne42 is a wise one!
Yes, this is the thing I like about Hanukkah - you can TOTALLY SPACE OUT on the first day, and still have a week to get your stuff together! BTW, we're opening your package by the light of the menorah tonight, after eating microwaved lasagna. :)

Hah! Awesome. My Dad always made sure to tell me that the menorah wasn't supposed to be used as a light source - right before he turned out all the other lights leaving only the menorah twinkling before our eyes. :-P Yesterday I saw a minivan with a constructed aluminum menorah atop it with the center "candle" (lightbulb) lit and four others (I think).
