Another thing to check off the end of the year list: I am done wih Christmas cookies for the year. 19 days, 16 types. 13 pounds of butter. No, seriously: 13 pounds. I kid you not.
I think that this Christmas season has been the most social in years. Between parties an lunches and “can we meet for drinks?” I have been really busy which is very unusual for the un-social butterfly that I am. I am very much looking forward to this weekend when I have nothing planned besides sleeping and maybe finding a ski slope.
Ludwig (my v-dub) had a bit of an issue this morning, an issue with a $277 price tag. He’d been rattling away for a few days and this morning on the way to work, I heard a ping (presumably from something falling off) and then it was as loud as 12 diesel generators. Turns out that the brackets that held the entire exhaust system were missing or broken, and the ping was the sound of a gasket falling off, the noise was the fact that while I still had a muffler – and a cat converter – nothing was connected anymore and the cat converter was cracked due to it falling while at 45 mph. And so, off to King Midas Mr. Ludwig went. It could have been worse. It could have been the entire manifold.
Sadaam was captured. I don’t know if it makes a bit of difference.
