					<description>My goodness, Neo.  That was quite an ordeal.  It sounded like you were having one of those days where the square peg just won't fit into that round hole.  When I'm having one of those days, everything around me seems bound and determine to obstruct, obfuscate and be generally unpleasant.  The light is red at almost every intersection, the remote controller's battery dies, the driver in front of me slows to fifteen miles per hour and my computer decides to update itself without my permission and skews my settings.

This is, of course, what your insidious mind tells you despite the fact that you arrive home intact.  The TV still has that curious "power on" button that still works, right? 

I hope you're having a better day.

Have a wonderful Christmas, Neo!</description>

					<description>It does get better...family, friends, Midnight Mass, an old Mario Lanza CD with Ave Maria, and spiced rum...mellowness can arrive even among unpacked boxes. Out here we have streets and walks lined with luminarias, candles in sand in little bags and lit at sundown, and a church founded in 1589. Be happy and best of holidays.</description>

					<description>Like dave, we moved into the new digs in August. Still...................unpacking. 

This was move #19 for us in our 50 years of marriage. You'd think we would have it down pat. Sadly, no. 

We will get 'er done, eventually. And so will you, Neo.

Merry Christmas.</description>
