Christmas Holiday
Some random impressions from the last few days of 2005:Planes. Trains. Automobiles. Snow. Food. Cakes. Rutabaga casserole. Chocolate. Family. Pointless discussions. Relatives. Patience. Neighbours. Children. Temper tantrums. Babies. Birth canals. Birthdays. Platitudes. Barbie dolls. Christmas trees. Candles. Childhood memories. Old junk. Arguments. Self control. Ice hockey. Live sports commentary. Bad jokes. Moot points. Daytime soaps. Pointless quiz shows. City lights. Traffic. Sales. Crowds. Queues. Birds. Mouse traps. Ants. Computers. Solitaire. DVDs. Sauna. Health status. Sickness reports. Deaths. Fake smiles. Small talk. Misfit. Ohmygod.
And 22 Pätkis, although who’s counting.
Can you tell that I spent the Christmas and New Year with my parents in Finland?
Lesson learned: Watch out what you say to your parents and older relatives and acquintances. It WILL come back to haunt you.
