I spent 9 hours dealing with a shorthanded staff and a lot of short-tempered customers today. It's not the first Xmas Eve I've worked but it was definitely the toughest. The line was practially out the door all day and holiday spirit was in very short supply.
I'm home now and looking forward to a day off. Then I wade back into the breech on Dec 26th. At least I have a fat paycheck coming my way for all the extra hours I'm putting in this pay period.
I'm way too tired to be merry. And even though this is not my holiday, I miss my family. I miss snow (not that NYC had a white Xmas all that often but at least there was a chance). And I miss New York.
On the bright side, I have Scott & the kitties all happy to have me home, and tomorrow we're going to cook up some kickass food with some friends. Should be fun.

Happy Hanukkah Rachel. I hope today is very relaxing and please tell us all about that "kick ass food". :P
