Had a good look on Ebay. The ones I like are from $200. Seems a lot to pay for something I will only use for one day every two years. I think I'll wait for the after Xmas sales.
Oh, I just spent over an hour wandering around the nearest big regional shopping centre looking for one of these large fucking trees. Bloody waste of time.

Don't play by the rules.

Another rule breaker. Much more better.

Got my Covid booster shot and my flu shot. Time to kiss some strangers.
Brewing a pot of Guatemalan. Aldi's had specialty coffees, so I'm treating myself.

Feeling super ill, presumably from some improperly washed lettuce. I'll spare the details but nausea and cramping and everything that implies. If I'm not much better in the morning, I'll find a doctor.

Cold is progressing as it normally does when I get sick, meaning I'll at least be dealing with this for another week before I can fully beat it. Some people get sick and beat it within a day, but not me. I can be sick for two or three weeks.
