The three miracles of Christmas
1. Going to the Fred Meyers and finding the present we wanted was sold out. Then, while waiting in line at the customer service desk, having the guy who got in line behind us be there returning the exact thing we wanted. "We accidentally bought two."
2. While wondering what in the world we were going to do about parking at Hoki's Teriyaki Hut, someone came out and moved their car.
3. Going to the Washington State Liquor Store on Broadway and discovering the tequila I wanted was on sale.
Of course, now we're all out of miracles, and we have come home to discover we have no plans for Christmas Eve - most importantly, no dinner plans - and I somehow neglected to anticipate that this might happen. For all that I'm an atheist, I would have rather enjoyed a nice meal tonight, preferably some good company. And all the grocery stores are closed now ... which is extra sad since we could have easily picked up anything we wanted earlier tonight.
Poop. No wonder I'm looking forward to the Rudolph drinking party more than I am tonight, or for that matter tomorrow.
