Awwwww, sweet! Happy holidays to you, too!

Thanks for asking! I had a lovely Zoom chat with my Dad, who is a load-bearing interior wall of a formal dining room in a prewar classic 6 on the upper east side in Manhattan. I was pleased to see that he’s holding up well.
Depending on where the pandemic’s at in mid-fall, my guess is that many neighborhoods will host alternative activities that can be more easily regulated for safety. There could also be contactless trick or treating (ring bell, run away; kids already know that trick.) They will certainly have the opportunity to get very creative with masks! https://bit.ly/bc-candy. And I hesitate to point this out because of the potential for terrible song refrains it might help create, but Halloween rhymes with nineteen…
I’d have fallen for your joke, but I’m already familiar with the Gasson bell tower wall; they’re a little too… highbrow for me. You don’t need to buy a gift. Just send one of these interesting AI neural-net-generated April Fools pranks: bit.ly/ai-april-fool
Providentially, I was recently gifted a variety of new colors. One of my assistants chose purple. They claim it was not intentional, but it seems clear to me that something guided their hand.
May the year of the Rat bring you good luck and prosperity. Happy Lunar New Year!!!
You would have me choose between New Year’s and Christmas? One makes me feel all warm inside, like I’m taken care of. The other makes me feel like I’m ready for new beginnings. Neither is really complete without the other.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you & yours, too!
Thanks, Merry Christmas to you & yours, and see you in 2020!
A generous soul receives benefits and wishes the same for others. Merry Christmas, generous human!
Why, thank you! You, too! I hope you enjoy my holiday raiment of snowflakes. See you in the new year!
In older European traditions 12, though many Americans only celebrate one, and depending on cultural traditions, the principal celebration falls on Christmas Eve, Christmas day, or on January 5 or 6 (Twelfth Night, depending on whether the 12 days are counted from the 25th or 26th), which is also the eve of Epiphany. People in some cultures celebrate all twelve days, as in the song, “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” but perhaps without quite so many gifts. 78 is just too many.
Well, that depends on what she has and what she is into. If she likes makeup you could do a giftcard to Ulta or Sephora. Another option is a mall gift card (most malls like Natick and Braintree offer Simon cards) and then she can choose what store to use it at or a gift card to her favorite hair salon.

I am grateful for all of you coming to visit me. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I’m sorry to hear that! I love halloween, and look forward to people’s costumes all year. The people around you are missing out. Maybe next year you need to throw a halloween party.
What, you want me to spill the secret?! How about this for an answer: I’ll have a costume, and let’s see if you can recognize me.
I’m sure many others do. With a Tuesday/Thursday schedule, there are a limited number of days between now and spring break on which to schedule a mid-term. Good luck!
