If I’m extra good at them, maybe Santa will leave an extra gift!
See you all tomorrow.

Uhm, you do realize that you’re Santa for your house, right? I mean, you bring the presents, you have the beard, the belly like a bowl full of jelly, etc.
@Scorpius I would note that has a lack of belly thanks to Coke Zero – and I imagine some workouts.
John- since your’e so good at your chores, will you please come help me with mine? If you’d be willing to use the MOLC for some of the people that I work with, I’d love you forever and ever (not that I wouldn’t anyways..).

NYAH NYAH NYAH NYAH NOT LISTENING NYAH NYAH
Make sure you sweep the flue, John. That’ll go a long way.
Do you and your family split chores, so everyone has their assigned tasks? Or do you all just do it as it needs done?
@secondgenfan, I suspect Mr. Scalzi could make a fortune renting out TMOLC, even if he wouldn’t personally be wielding it. Who doesn’t have a couple of people in their life who could benefit from a judicious application of the same?
Hi John,
Your posting that all of a sudden had me thinking: Athena is clever, intelligent, and I’m betting, given her parents, net saavy. It also seems likely from some of your posts that she has a snarky and ironic sense of humor. So what are the chances she is, could be, or could become one of your commenters, incognito?
