Hey hows it going. I'm out in Israel so not much of a christmas vibe out here, I do miss it.
@mathlover Glad to hear it.. hope it was a wonderful holiday
@freemo It was, and still is! What I'm really looking forward to is the dinner tonight!
@freemo
So breakfast this morning was French toast, mimosas with sparkling wine, salmon and bagels, and a fruit salad.
I'm not 100% sure about the side dishes of the dinner, but I do know the centerpiece here is a *big* roast of beef.
@freemo
I'm not that well myself. I'm with the flu. Do you know anything about Ryle?
@joaopinheiro ryle is doing well, hope you feel better :(
@freemo Thank you very much. Have a great day!
@joaopinheiro bedtime for me, but you too!
@freemo Have a peaceful night, then! :)
@joaopinheiro there is a violent thunderstorm right now. I intend to sleep with the windows open
@freemo Here it's raining. And I'm fighting with my little server in order to make it work properly. I'm no IT expert, but I like fiddling with these things. I'm toing to host several services that I use.
@joaopinheiro exciting! :) The fediverse is a fun hobby.
@freemo And, to me, it's not only a hobby. I've been paying services for many years that my students have been using. Now, I want to go on doing that but paying less.
@joaopinheiro Its a great way to provide a useful internet service without spending a lot too :)
@freemo And respecting everyone's rights.
@freemo Merry Christmas, and thanks for playing Santa this year and giving all of us new users here the gift of QOTO! It's very much appreciated.
@internic It is something I am very happy to do.
@freemo I went to Sharm el Sheik on a diving holiday in early December about fifteen years ago. The hotels were all more Christmassy than England. Iy was surreal.
This is Mur 
@freemo
No israeli santas?
@freemo I'm over at my parents. Mom's coughing like crazy so I'll see how I fare tomorrow. 😅
@freemo I am watching Miracle on 34th Street, old and new versions back to back. This is the rare occasion where I like both.
@freemo Many of us aren’t feeling a super-strong Christmas vibe here, either, and I’m not entirely sure why.
But it’s the 25th of December regardless, so feel free to indulge in whatever makes you happy today!
That’s, you know, legal and moral and ethical, of course.
@freemo Here it's going well! More once we're done unwrapping presents
