My advent calendar from @antonsen started off with this cool The Nightmare Before Christmas hat! I have been wearing it all day, since I didn't change out of my pajamas, not exactly winter wear. Spent most of the day in my office, trying to wrap and ready a bunch of mail for shipping. I'm like 10% done with that... ugh. Sending mail has gotten SO much more involved, and expensive, in just a few years.
