What the fuck was I thinking?!

Who in their right mind moves on Christmas Day!?
I guess I'm not in my right mind. Picked up the keys for the new place today (Christmas Eve) and now I get to spend Christmas Day moving.
Maybe Santa will have pity on me and move all my things tonight instead of leaving presents for me. I'd love to wake up to an empty house and find all my things over at the new place. Hmmmm, getting an idea here...how big a plate of cookies do you think I'd need to leave out to get that done? 
HO-HO-HO-Humbug. Hope everyones Christmas is more chill then mine.

Cut to the next scene: TTS wakes up in a daze in the middle of the night to a large portly thief dressed as santa stealing all the packed up boxes out of his house...TTS thanks him and goes back to sleep.

Oh, BTW, Jews don't celebrate Christmas so I'm sure you've got nothing to do tomorrow. Wanna help?

Heh, yeah. 20 years ago I swore I wouldn't make it this far. Now I'm hoping for at least another 40! 
I remember yours is within a few days of mine, but I don't remember the exact date. I'm the 11th.

Just catch a ride out with Santa. He should be stopping through there on his way out to the West Coast. Is it wrong for a Jew to ride with Santa, or is it just a Jesus thing?

 I don't feel so bad now. I Say you should just throw a party and once everyone gets drunk tell them you invented a new drinking game where they all have to carry boxes around.

No. I'm moving away from the beach. Its too fucking expensive here. I've lived here almost 2 years and I still haven't unpacked the boxes because I don't have anywhere to put my stuff. I'm moving to an apartment that is 400 sq ft bigger for about $250 less a month.
I will miss living at the beach, but its only a 5 minute drive from the new place. You gotta weigh all the options at times and make sacrifices for the better good I guess.

Merry Christmas! Hope you had fun with your move... 
We spent about 30 hours either in an airport, on an airplane, or en route to one or the other. And that was just on the way there! We already had to take a connecting flight from DFW to Jackson, which was delayed...and delayed...until it was finally canceled hours later because of some wind. WIND!
So we try to get our distressed rate hotel room so we can get some rest to catch our early flight out. We call up the hotel and ask the shuttle to pick us up. They told us to go wait outside, down in the courtesy van area. So we waited. And waited. And waited. For about two hours. We called them repeatedly, apparently the van kept filling up before they could get to our terminal (the last one on the route), and they just left us standing there in the cold. Freezing cold, tired, and frustrated, we called up another hotel and paid the full rate for a room. They picked us up within 5 minutes.
One hundred twenty dollars and 6 hours of sleep later, we get up at 4 am to make our 5:30 am flight to Atlanta. See, due to it being the crazy travel season, there were no seats available from DFW to Jackson that day. So we had to fly to Atlanta on another airline, and then take ANOTHER connecting flight back to Jackson. En route to Atlanta from DFW, we flew directly over top of Jackson. I could see it as we flew over and I joked that we should've had some parachutes.
We arrived safely in Atlanta and then caught our connecting flight (which was, of course, delayed).
Hatta and I have decided that we are never flying on a holiday again. Ever. I bought the Stephen Colbert book, I Am America And So Can You, as we left home, and was just a chapter away from finishing it by the time we arrived at our destination.
I ate a bunch of chocolate and I had the pleasure of telling an grumpy old man at the airport, "Fuck off, old man" as he yelled at us, "If you're in such a hurry, why didn't you take an earlier flight?" as we ran around him to try and meet our second connecting flight (which of course, we missed, mostly likely due to his slow ass). All in all, it was a good Christmas!

Whew! What a crazy week its been. But everything is finally moved. All the furniture is in place and I have no more heavy lifting to do. The cable guy came by this afternoon and got me all juiced up here. I still got lots of unpacking/organizing to finish up but that can be done at leisure.
This week was way more tiring then going to work!!
