this is my obligatory the-christmas-season-is-going-to-kill-me post.

my kidneys hurt.
of course this makes me think i'm dying.

i had this grand idea this morning to skip breakfast, leave early and go get an eggnog latte and a muffin from peet's. i successfully left my house early and parked my car in front of the coffee shop only to find a line that was about fifteen people long. all i wanted to make today bearable was an eggnog lattee and a smart muffin. why was this taken from me? everyone knows i don't function without caffiene.

we're at 750 calls for the christmas season so far. only half the hungry people to go...
