You know how ribbon is naturally curly when you pull it off the roll? 

I seem to be incapable of curling ribbon. Somehow, though, I'm incredibly capable of straightening ribbon when attempting to curl it

I don't know how that works.

I asked my daughter, a PT for the VA, does KwikStar (KwikTrip in Wisc.) take checks. My daughter is an incredible worker and moonlights, at KwikStar. She responded, KwikStar does not accept checks. I used the cash machine at KwikStar to withdraw enough cash to pay for a Lowes Gift Card for my daughter and her husband (my holiday chef).

I made Christmas AI art should any of us need an escape from unexpected holiday stresses such as I have had over Christmases of the past: Delta losing my luggage, running out of bourbon for the eggnog - after the liquor store closed for the night, being the last of my peers to realize Santa doesn’t exist - after the liquor store closed for the night, having to hear "Little Drummer Boy" over the intercom of a grocery for the 70th time, the cats knocking over the Christmas tree at two in the morning for the forth night in a row, inducing the Heimlich maneuver on my brother's Pomeranian after he choked on my uncle's hearing aid he swallowed off the floor.

So should anybody need momentary relief this week without losing their Christmas Spirit, please drop into my AI Bar and sing along:

I'm dreaming tonight
of a bar somewhere
Even more than I usually do…
🎵
You can drink with me
Please have Rum
And Jameson
And football on T-Vee
🎵
Christmas Eve will find me-ee
Where the bar light gle-eeams
Here’s a tipsy Christma-aas
If on-ly in my dre-eeams

This is why you’re one of the finest engineers any of us know.

hope everyone is having a delightful Christmas!

Why is every female regardless of age or experience better than every male at wrapping gifts?

Wife's dad and stepmom coming today. Not excited because she's a %&#*@ and we pissed her off last Friday by cancelling on plans. (To be honest, I don't think she wanted to do them, and offered my wife an out to cancel, but now I'm sure she's blaming my wife for canceling.)

Oh well. Only two more weeks and they're moving to Phoenix, so it won't be an issue. 

Why is every female regardless of age or experience better than every male at wrapping gifts?
Actually I'm quite good at wrapping. It's my meticulous (read: OCD) nature as an engineer. 

But as previously mentioned, I can't curl ribbon.

I know what you mean; my sister does a fantastic job of wrapping really pretty gifts - my husband says why don't they offer wrapping services at the stores anymore and I am somewhere in between.  This year was our new kitties first Christmas (they are about nine months old) and boy, did they absolutely hate the green wrapping paper with Christmas penguins on it that I wrapped hubby's gifts in!  I got up the next morning and they had completely torn it all off, leaving all other differently wrapped presents alone, lol.  They did like to climb around underneath and around the tree but at least did not climb up it or knock it over, thank goodness.  They just knocked off the lower ornaments and played with them, so I was finding them all over the house, lol.  

My mom was great at wrapping gifts to disguise what they were and my dad would take 20 minutes to unwrap his gifts - he would take out his switchblade and very carefully cut the tape, save every ribbon, etc.  Christmas was a fun day in our household!

Dexterity in the hands.

It's why their penmanship blows ours away as well.

Too bad ladies don't (usually) work on cars.
