We wish you a bloggy Christmas

Greetings from Belushi's American sports bar in the former East Berlin. Elvis is playing on the loudspeakers, some random 10k road race is on the myriad TVs, my boyfriend is playing World of Warcraft beside me, and it's Christmas morning. What more could a girl want?

Last night we had Christmas dinner at the Chaos Computer Club. About fifteen people sat round a large table replete with power outlets, phone chargers and empty bottles of highly caffeinated beverages, and chatted to each other over IRC between courses. Again, what more could a girl want?

The traditional year-end wrap-up will follow in the next few days, but for the moment, Merry (slightly surreal) Christmas everyone!
