Just a wee update

I am out in the country, kicking back with a glass of soynog. The tree is up, and the beast is contentedly watching the lights reflect off the tasty strands of tinsel. He is either genuinely disinterested or planning a devastating night strike, it's hard to tell. Work on my thesis is not progressing, despite the 50lb bag of books that I brought with me. I am, however, have a good time. More soon.

Edited to add: Apparently the nog was so powerful (harnessing, as it did, the twin powers of Rum and Triple Sec), that it disabled my central grammar processing unit. I'm "having" a good time everyone, no need to panic.

Since you delight in pointing out grammar mistakes in others' work, I thought you might like an early X-mas present.

Instead of I am, however, have a good time, consider I am, however, having a good time.

Only because I care.

We should get some real eggnog and lactose pills.

Aiyah! I just saw that as I clicked on the "read comments button". I not only delight in pointing out other people's errors, it's my job to do so!

Oh, I'll just take it as a good sign. When I, as a grammar nazi, can make a mistake that means I'm having a very nice time.

:)

Merry Ho-Ho,
