We’re closing in on Christmas, you guys. And with Christmas coming on a Sunday, that means most of us get not only the weekend off, but the Friday and Monday surrounding the weekend off as well. One of the best cures for a case of the Scaries that were fueled by getting too drunk at your office holiday party? A short week.
And well, if you don’t have a short week, I feel sorry for you. You’re about to be sitting at your desk with a case of FOMO while you watch all your friends and coworkers play in the winter wonderlands they all returned to for the holidays.
Let’s get into the best of last night’s Panic Rooms.
Without the light at the end of the tunnel, this would’ve been completely miserable. I guess grad school is worth it some of the time, huh?
Sunday football on mute with a candle burning and music playing is a tradition unlike any other.
Q-Zip Nation lives on.
One of the best things about the holidays is being able to light your house using exclusively Christmas lights. The glow and ambiance that it creates is unparalleled when your mental game is crumbling down.
Can you imagine falling asleep on the couch and having Jack wake you up at 2 a.m. licking your face begging you to go to bed? I could feel my heart getting warm as I typed that, much like the feeling of sipping a warm whiskey-coffee in the midst of a snowstorm.

Any time you’re putting in work on a Sunday night in an effort to get ahead of the eight-ball on Monday, I can’t not respect you. Me? I was binge-watching The Crown and cold-sweating. Different strokes for different folks.
More #grinding.
“Faded off Chianti” might be the name of my autobiography, and honestly, I might just put a picture of this dog on the cover as well.
Life comes at your fast when you pound lasagna like it’s going out of style.
Said it last night and I’ll say it again: one of the best Christmas Panic Rooms one can have. When you start mixing in cheese plates with Love Actually, you know you’re living right.
Nothing wrong with a little grazing. Just have to make sure you clean up afterward and not catch of a whiff when you leave for work on Monday morning.

No no no no no no no no no.
So much greatness about this specific tweet. Decoy? Favorite reasonable cab in the game. Not just regular Natalie Merchant, but deep cuts? Love it. Tree lit? #ambiance. That drizzle too. That drizzzzzzzle.
I’ll just say it: 59 degrees is psycho cold.
Probably the most well-taken photo we’ve seen in the last few weeks running. It’s like she cleaned the glass exclusively to make sure her Panic Room photo was going to turn out perfect.
That face.
Middle seat on a Sunday night? Nah. You’re better off with that plane going down. .

I had no idea people got this Friday off. It’s going to be my busiest day of the week.
Honestly, entirely possible it’s just us. And for that, I’m sorry.
You get Friday and Monday off?
I don’t even want to say how much time I get off… stay strong compadres
Government employee here. Since Christmas Eve is Saturday, we get Friday off and since Christmas is Sunday, we get Monday off. Solid 4-day weekend.
Government Employee here…work Friday and Monday. However we get a floating holiday since we have work Monday. Same goes for the day after New Years.
Airline employee here. No short week. Working on Christmas Eve. Kill me now.
Who invited Kara?
Sympathies to Best. That’s just a miserable way to spend a Sunday
RIP Best. May Angels lead you in and such and so forth and whatnot
No day off on Friday, but our HR lady somehow convinced the boss to give us the entire week off next week. Working for a company based in Italy has it’s perks, those bastards love PTO/extended holidays.
I’m usually the one waking Jack up to go upstairs to bed after we fall asleep on the couch. That little guy loves his couch naps. Now I wish I smuggled him into the office so he could be my little helper all day.

I made $20000 dollars last month selling slightly used gum….check out this website
I would pay $250k a year to not have to attend med school.
I’m no expert but that feels like poor financial management
I pay $80,000/yr and my youth to attend med school.
