Did Christmas, now Beck and I are celebrating the evening with a little Chinese food. A little from column A, a little from column B, as it were.

[2] Amelia's 1st Christmas - yay! my parents are about to land in Atl. chinese food in a coupla hours, methinks...

Hell, I celebrate Christmas and we had Chinese tonight. The place was packed with a bunch of people who didn't feel like cooking either...

Hope everyone had a great one today. My best gift (as a father of a 3-year-old) was a 2-hour nap this afternoon. :)

Had a nice Xmas dinner with friends. Then saw "Crazy Heart" .... standard, oft-told story, carried on the masterful talents of Jeff Bridges alone. Maggie Gyllenhall overacted a lot, and was given some god-awful dialogue to slobber through. Colin Farrell tries hard, but mis-cast.

Stlll .... 3 stars, just for Bridges. He should get an Oscar nomination.

Opened my email this evening and saw thus subject line: "J.Damon & Yakult Swallows 2-yr Deal!" After effects of too much Xmas revelry perhaps, but I believed it for a few seconds and got really excited...oh well, guess my beloved Swallows will have to stick to the Hensley Muelens' of the world and not players like Johnny D..
