Hello, internet. We’re up. I had a restless, warm night. Shawshank asked me for a time check, and Podrick climbed into bed after he heard me answer. We cuddled for a little while, with him pressing his face into my hands, until the sucking noises grossed out Shawshank enough to leave the bedroom.

Yesterday was the brunch/puttering day of the week. Shawshank threw the clothes in the washer and made us a fabulous brunch. I started hanging up some little wall hooks to string up my new lights. They make the room look like it’s filled with candlelight.
We also had our belated Christmas exchange. Shawshank made a trip out for snacks and to pick up our deliveries. He quickly opened his order, since it included the wrapping paper. I set up on the floor and wrapped his things, then he took the roll into the bedroom to wrap mine.
Then we unwrapped everything. The yearly gift exchange was complete. Shawshank got the cats a new ball, and Podrick got a bandana. He got me an insulated cup, some new makeup brushes, and some brush cleaning tools. I spent the next 30 minutes fucking around with a brush blender and washing things.
Shawshank has to work tonight, but will be off for both New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. I’m going to load up a smut stream and see if I can end the year with some extra money.
