There’s a turkey on my kitchen floor. It will be there all week.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow I’m giving chocolates to the woman I drew in Secret Santa. When asked for gift ideas, she suggested world peace exclamation point.<\/p>\n
If pushed, I would describe the general tenor of all recent phone conversations as ‘strained’ at best.<\/p>\n
