Jetée

I'm going to get on to sharing with all of you three wise gifts, but I've been down and tired, and my back is sore (which has no bearing on why I have yet to "upload" my gifts unto ye, but the time in which spent that led to a sore back perhaps is an attribute of my symptoms.)

I had wanted it to be tonight (well, last night really) but I'll most likely be catching up on stuff, and also trying to figure out where to find the third gift (I heard about it on the 2nd night of Christmas, but I have not yet been able to locate it, manageably) so just hang on.

Until then, Christmas in The Longest Thread Ever is on lay-away.
(actually, the real celebration of the Birth of "Christ", or Jesus, should actually be around the same time we honor his death, in the weeks right after Spring, but mainstream Western Society has told us to celebrate in December for some several centuries, so I get it... man, my back is killing me.)
