Housekeeping: TTAC Takes A Christmas Break
Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, so it’s gonna be a long, relaxing weekend for those of us in the blog mines.
This means we will be knocking off early today.
Merry Christmas, Everyone
As we roll into the holidays, TTAC is signing off for a four-day weekend and its writers are enjoying some much needed rest with family and friends. As much as we love to pour our hearts into this little corner of the web, we also need to share those hearts with other loves in our lives. So, because of that, TTAC can wait for a few days.
But before we go, I’d like to thank you — the writers, the readers, and everyone else that makes this possible — for an excellent year. Enjoy your holidays safely. We’d really like to see you come back here in 2017 in one piece.
In the meantime, and in the spirit of the season, let’s try something.
Merry Christmas, And Now a Retrospective Look Eight Months Later
When I was but a tyke, my parents would give me extremely vague, outlandish and downright wrong clues as to what sat under the Christmas tree for me every year. My mom and dad, being ever clever (or at least thinking they were), would disguise my gifts with a Matryoshka doll arrangement of boxes, fill those boxes with pieces of wood or other noisy-when-shaken household accoutrements, wrap the presents up and shove them under the tree. This Christmas Present Camouflage™ would typically produce quizzical looks on my face, and those of friends and family members, as we shook the boxes and communally attempted to ascertain what was inside.
Which, now that I think about it, is similar to how I viewed TTAC when I started back at the end of April.
But first, let’s roll back the calendar a few years.
