Daniel's life, Christmas, 2000: monitor ear, nose, and throat flem and mucous production at kanon42's home, with many arguing "family-in-law" members.
Well, it was nice to be surrounded by people for a change, even if I'm not a follower of any particular religion. I got a Chocolate Orange (which I've been craving) and gift certificates to Tunes (a music store) and to Barnes and Noble.
I'm going to be quite happy to be out of this allergen-plagued land, though...
