I appreciated this entry so much...
...that it inspired me to write a holiday haiku. I think you'll appreciate it...
Three cheers for egg nog Whiskey and hot toddies rule Christmas sweaters suck.
Feliz navidad, mis amigos, and whereever your holidays may take you, don't forget the tequila y cervezas!

I ran a bar for a year. It had 20-foot ceilings, fans, and huge factory-
like windows and the smoke would still get so thick you could write your name in midair...

I grew up around smokers. My fiance smokes. My brother's wife smokes.
My brother and I never have. Funny, huh?

Sounds dreadful, ladychardonnay. Nothing more disgusting than smoking
children. Someone should hose them down, then turn the nozzle on the parents.

the only relative i dreaded moved to arizona
he was the reformed alcoholic that pretended to be straight / my mother would not serve any booze while he was there / and he was already drunk and she refused to believe it. i dread my mother-in-laws though - the whole entire family smokes - even the children - maybe i should wear a gas mask this year.
