Thank you to my fellow Holidailies participants, for reading along and for providing some lovely reading material through the month.

2018 Survey Posted on Dec 31, 2018, 5:12 am
I’ve been filling out this online survey for the past 15 (!@?) years. Not all of them are public, but after a certain point, I felt like it has become a weird little tradition.

Drinking Meme 2018 Posted on Dec 29, 2018, 11:12 pm
I figured that, so close to New Year’s Eve, a meme about drinking would be apropos.

Wordless Wednesday - Ocean Cliff Posted on Dec 27, 2018, 1:12 am
A photo I took off the edge of a cliff in San Diego earlier this month.

Christmas Aftermath Posted on Dec 25, 2018, 11:12 pm
Well, here we are. Why do I always feel like I’ve ended a marathon when I’ve finally hit Christmas Day evening?

Random Prompt - The Music in My Head Posted on Dec 25, 2018, 2:12 am
I wish you all a lovely Christmas, if you celebrate it. If not, have a pleasant and peaceful Tuesday.

Nope Posted on Dec 24, 2018, 1:12 am
This weekend was a whirlwind of family and friend holiday gatherings, and I am equal parts content with getting to spend time with loved ones and exhausted from all the activity.

Saturday 9 - Happy Holidays Posted on Dec 23, 2018, 2:12 am
I do my very best to not be a jerk, even in the cases where it’s warranted.

Not a Tradition Posted on Dec 22, 2018, 3:12 am
The Holidailies prompt for today is, "Share your unique holiday traditions."

Craft - Mini Yarn Hat Ornaments Posted on Dec 21, 2018, 2:12 am
Speaking of making things, the party I’m going to on Sunday is an annual one, and every year, we make a craft. It’s mostly for the kids, but we adults sometimes end up making them, too.

Have a Flamingo Posted on Dec 20, 2018, 12:12 am
So, my exhausted self is posting a picture and then staggering off to bed.

Adventures in Chemicals Posted on Dec 19, 2018, 1:12 am
Today was a three-ring-circus at work, largely because a good number of our laboratory instruments decided that they’d rather be on holiday already.

Conversations With Kidlet Posted on Dec 18, 2018, 12:12 am
Bits of conversations with my teenager, including one rather chock full of curse words, so reader beware.

Sunday Stealing - Fashion Asks Posted on Dec 16, 2018, 6:12 pm
I’m still on the mend from last night’s headache adventure, and by “adventure”, I mean “sleigh-ride through Hell”. And it’s still raining outside, so I’m going to write this real quick before the meds wear off.

Christmas Music Video Posted on Dec 16, 2018, 12:12 am
I have a horrendous headache, due to the rain that has been going on for the last couple of days. I can barely stand to look at the computer screen for more than five minutes at a time, so I’m going to attach a video and then head for bed.

Random Prompt - Surviving the Holidays Posted on Dec 15, 2018, 3:12 am
In which I use the random prompt generator and then blather on for a good while.

You Can't Make Me Choose Posted on Dec 14, 2018, 2:12 am
I don’t remember when this question was first posed to me. High school? College? I do remember that I was 1) young, and 2) full of piss and vinegar. That second part hasn’t changed much.

Weird Day Posted on Dec 13, 2018, 12:12 am
My day at work today was one of those where all of the mechanical beasts that I use on a daily basis decided to be giant pains in my ass.

Nerdiments Posted on Dec 12, 2018, 1:12 am
Spellcheck doesn’t like my title. That’s weird!

The Thing About Sweaters Posted on Dec 11, 2018, 12:12 am
I have a confession. Though, it’s not so much a confession but more of a highlight. Confessing feels like I’m doing something wrong, and I’m not.

Sunday Stealing - Dreamy Posted on Dec 10, 2018, 3:12 am
Sunday Stealing Survey.

Insomnia Bites Posted on Dec 9, 2018, 3:12 am
The few wisps of energy I had left have wafted away, and I’m about to turn into a pumpkin.

Reflections - Five Things Posted on Dec 8, 2018, 1:12 am
Next up, I take off my wig and have a lime popsicle instead of an orange one. No stopping me!

Avocado Toast Adventures Posted on Dec 7, 2018, 12:12 am
I don’t know when avocado toast became something attributed to the Millennial generation, but I can assure you I was born long before then.

A Rework of a Favorite Christmas Song Posted on Dec 5, 2018, 11:12 pm
One of my favorite parts of the winter holiday season is the music that goes along with it, both the spiritual and the secular.

Recipe for Cranberry Streusel Shortbread Bars Posted on Dec 4, 2018, 11:12 pm
For as much as I like the fall and winter holiday season, I really am not much of a fan for some of the more popular seasonal flavors.

'Tis the Season for... Evil Stamps Posted on Dec 4, 2018, 12:12 am
I’m not entirely sure this will be better than sending out Santas in February.

Sunday Stealing -- Art Historic Posted on Dec 3, 2018, 12:12 am
I don't have a lot of gas in the tank, since I walked five and a half miles around the San Diego Zoo today and then had a delightful dinner that involved beer. So, I'll try a survey.

Holidailies 2018, Intro Posted on Dec 2, 2018, 1:12 am
Well, let me just dust this thing off… pull up a couple of the drop cloths…
