On da Sonos atm......

We have a house full of guests tonight. Paula wants carols on, fuck that, this will be on repeat....

That Vince Guaraldi album is a classic for sure. I also have it on vinyl and it gets lots of love this time of year.
I'll add Pretty Paper by Willie Nelson as a damn fine addition if you're looking for some incredible holiday tunes as well.

We also spin this record in our home during these holidays. My only complaint is that it is too short. Not sure if we have any Bright Eyes fans on here.

Holiday season for me always starts with my birthday. And since I‘m self-employed there won‘t be serious work to do for this year anymore. So, friends and family are coming and the feast may begin.

[ARNC]

I have a busy holiday break which I am pretty excited for. My county has 12 days off work starting tomorrow.

Tomorrow- cleaning the house followed by shopping in sleepy Shepherdstown, WV with my wife in the afternoon seeking holiday gifts for our family, and lunch at the new Greek place in town. Next, we are having my parents and possibly my sister, my BIL and niece over our place for the Ravens/Steelers game pizza party at 4:30.

12/23- Brutal head tattoo session I am both terrified and stoked to get done at 10am. Three hours on the side of my head above my ear. I have been putting this off for a long time. After, an Iron Heart package is scheduled to arrive in the evening. Then oysters and rockfish for a romantic at home dinner with Amanda.

12/24- Lunch at my parents, followed by getting our house together and preparing Christmas Eve and Christmas Dinners with my FIL, his partner, my SIL and her partner.

12/25- Christmas at home with the in laws.

12/26- Removing my fourth and final wisdom tooth on my bottom right row. Paying extra for general anesthesia as last time (three teeth, mind you) I was fully awake and it was absolutely horrible. Has anyone on here gone under GA during this procedure? If so, how was it? From there, I get to relax at home with pain killers which I can't complain about. Hopefully healing one tooth socket isn't nearly as bad as healing three at once like last time. I recall scratching the side of my tongue pretty badly on a top tooth when it was numb.

New Years Eve- Early dinner at 4:00pm somewhere fancy in town with Amanda. We have made reservations.

What about you all? What do y'all have going on IH folks?
