Keeping up with all the social media stuff I follow on Facebook, Tumblr, and Twitter can be exhausting. Not to mention trying to actually post on all of them occasionally. I don’t know how other people manage to be online posting stuff all day long.

Apparently this is a big Catholic thing that I don’t know about because I was raised Presbyterian, but in Christmas Eve every year, the Wife’s family does this big meal with all these fish dishes.

I just keep wondering where the beanie weenies are, and the sausage balls and the cheese log. Different cultures, man. On Christmas Day, they do Chinese food, and I really just want a ham.
