Also, fuck the entire wedding industry.

Well, apparently there's a 6 month grace period on sending gifts for marriages.
I'm sure someone in the wedding industry came up with that goofy shit (Macy's)(Martha Stewart)(The Actual Devil).

No, you don't want your gift to arrive after divorce proceedings have begun.

Heh yep- was about to edit saying perhaps it was 6 months now since that is approaching the half life of the average marriage these days.

Congrats!
And we had some RSVP'd people fail to show up for ours as well. We also had people who didn't bother to RSVP show up anyway, though, so it sorta balanced out.

Oddly, because I worked in IT with Accountants for 20 years, I noticed that I was always busy around this time because it was the only time we could pull everything apart and get it all back together for tax season.

Yes other accountants are busy. We're waiting on the data for the end of 2013. Which means we have fuckall to do except projections and chair spinning.

Yes it does. That's cause very few people living here are actual native to the Bay Area (fucking job seekers) so most people if they want to visit family during the holidays have to travel. And of course a lot of businesses effectively shut down. What this area really needs is another Dot-com crash  Traffic was wonderful for a while after that happened the last time.

Yeah it was - although my commute has always been reverse (Daly City or Mt. View -> San Jose) and on 280 so I've been lucky. If I still lived in the East Bay and had to drive on 80 I'm sure I would have murdered someone by now.

sensor the faces.
Jeez. Oh, Paelos, fucking traffic! I'm trying to get home from pickup up my son from an after-school activity and god-damn at the out-of-state license plates. In addition to all the usual Carroll county mouthbreathers. It's six thirty because we stopped to eat halfway between Marietta and Hiram, but traffic is backed up for god-damn miles on US 120. So we get cute and try some side roads south of Lost Mountain: DO NOT DO THIS. Awful. I need to convince Al Qaeda that Paulding county is the Mecca of everything they hate, right about the time that I go out of town, so I can happily come back to a charred ruin and a cleaner gene pool.

One guy on my side road route back to the house has instituted what can only be described as an inflatable christmas village on his lawn. Words do not do this justice, it's probably 600 square feet of wall to wall inflatable christmas crap and lights. As you can expect, this causes people to rubberneck the hell out of the place, and in fact STOP. So now, my backup route needs a backup because of Clark Griswalds holiday palace.

Got married on Saturday.
Congrats! Though I assume you didn't take the advise of marrying someone that makes a lot more money than you, tsk tsk.

Bastard. I was always the only guy at my office that was running around crazy in December, as I had all the clients that needed to have projections, tax planning, and deferred taxes projected before year end.

5+ inches of lake effect snow today?
I'm going christmas shopping! Hopefully everyone freaking out about a little snow (when they live in a snow belt!) should keep the stores a bit more empty than usual.

Tomorrow is our annual xmas pizzelle making day. We're supposed to have around six inches of snow starting in the late afternoon and then the temps will plummet in the evening and become treacherously icy. Oh Cheers. If it happens, we might have to cancel or people will have to stay over and that's a fate worse than death. srsly. We make very awesome pizzelles, just like our mom did. Plenty of butter and booze. I wish I could send you all some for xmas!

I had to look those up. Apparently they are waffle cookies.

I live in an Italian city, or at least it was before the homogenization of poverty. So I always get pizelles from old Italian ladies. Even we had a machine and made them when I was a kid. Everyone did.
