Tuesday: woke up a little early, despite my late night. Main goal for today was to pack for our trip to Wichita for the wedding. I ran to the store for cat treats and water, and while I considered going by Target for socks, the chaos in the parking lot gave a strong incentive to take care of that on a different occasion. I brought Taco Bell home again, and while I ate, I watched the start of Kastaclysm's Silent Hill 3 playthrough. Julie got a notification that her prescription was ready to be refilled, so we walked down to Rite Aid, possibly for the last time. (I think the location will be closed since the parent company filed bankruptcy. There shelves were starting to empty.) I confirmed that Rite Aid didn't have any socks, so we stopped into the shoe store next door. Back home, I gathered the litter while Julie took out the recycling. I finally replaced the worn out plastic bag I'd used for the recycling in the office with my the mesh bag from the shoe store.
With the trash and recycling staged for later, I took a shower before packing my carry-on. I had a little bit of salad to use up, while Julie made an omelette for herself. While we ate, we watched the series finale of Lower Decks. We're both disappointed that the series has come to an end. Since we weren't really in the mood to just jump into Buffy, we just watched a few episodes of Bob's Burgers. While we watched, I spent some time grinding money in one of the base adventures in Vampire Survivors. Since I started to drift off, we called it quits, and I took the trash bags out to the bin, after which we treated the cats. Julie headed to bed, and I posted this update.
Sunday: my annual coughing spell is back in force today. I had been dreading my return to work after a week away, but Christmas Eve call volume is pretty low, and I was just doing floorwalking and catchup project work anyway. My shift bid results came up today confirming my schedule for the next six months will remain the same. Once work ended, we had dinner plans at the Cheesecake Factory with another couple. I debated whether I should refrain thanks to my cough, but so far this is the same respiratory issue I have dealt with every year for the past eight years, so I decided to just down more cough medicine and carry cough drops with me while wearing my mask. I enjoyed the conversation, and the food was pretty good, but our waiter was a little overworked with the number of tables he was dealing with. Once we got back home, I finished watching the Pat Stares At stream I'd had on earlier while preparing for this update. I'm hoping I can avoid talking at all tomorrow.
Saturday: see DEC 25 for a detailed update, but this was the day I made chocolate-dipped cookies.

Sunday: still in Livonia. Posed for a holiday sweater photo with Julie, Chris, and their dad.
Saturday: today, Julie tried to play some Watch Dogs 2. She struggled with it enough that she wasn't interested in continuing, but I took over for her and she watched me play, instead.
