How I'm Spending My Christmas vacation

In answer to this:

Where are all the holidays for the introverts AM I RIGHT?

It turns out: Since I'm not traveling, I'm sick, and it's pouring, staying home, in pjs, watching a Doctor Who marathon is a pretty perfect holiday.

.@BBCAmerica’s Five Days of the Doctor marathon starts Weds Dec 24th 8AM ET w/ over 100 episodes to air! https://t.co/MLB5zn2JO9 #DoctorWho

This minus the tea, but with lots of fluids because I still have the flu, or flu-like symptoms

Sounds perfect to me! http://t.co/gDwwwQH8hw pic.twitter.com/nmGTPI1aD5

And I have presents, Diet Coke, some time off, AND a vacation still scheduled. Pretty good alternative for this year. What a chance from the last few years.

YouTube Tuesday: British Blackberries

We're going to start a new segment on the blog, called YouTube Tuesdays, when I'm going to post all the weird YouTube clips that people have sent me, or that I've posted to YouTube.

This one came to me over the holiday break, from my pal Jane over at the Flax Hill Gardner. Jane and I enjoy silly bits of British humour.
