Looks like it's time for more self-revelatory Q lists. :-)  Ah, family and  
the holidays . . .  There are good things about them and there are things 
about them that bug the hell out of you.  



Top Ten Q Family Holiday Irritations.

1. Q, Q's sibling and Jean-Luc annoy the Q Parental Units by shutting 
themselves up in the sibling's bedroom to talk about slash.
 
2. Q always insists on having mashed pom-root with Chritsmas dinner, which 
bugs the hell out of Dad Q because *everyone* knows that pom-root doesn't go 
with roasted Denibian Slime Devil.
 
3. Mom Q spends a lot of time bitching about her job and then ignores 
Jean-Luc when he tries to make comparisons with his own problems on the job.
 
4. Q takes over the job of mixing drinks and, just for fun, makes everything 
a double or a triple.
 
5. Dad Q keeps trying to get everyone involved in something that's supposedly 
fun.
 
6. Mom Q, Q, Q's sibling, and Jean-Luc annoy Dad Q by shutting themselves in 
sibling's bedroom to watch that dance contest episode of "Hercules."
 
7. Dad Q doesn't understand why putting hot chocolate in your coffee just 
isn't the same as going to Foglifters for a café mocha.
 
8. Q, Jean-Luc, and Q's sibling all drink different brands of diet cola, and 
they're all really picky about it.
 
9. Given that the Q Parental Units are nearly-omnipotent immortals, it's 
pretty irritating that their sofa beds are so freakin' uncomfortable.
 
10. Q Parental Units insist on treating Jean-Luc like one of the family


Great Things About Going to Visit the Q family for the Holidays

1. No one has to do the dishes.
 
2. Q Parental Units understand how important it is to check your  
interdimensional hyper-mail at least once an hour or so.  
 
3. Dad Q kicks ass in a culinary fashion, and insists on whipping up yummy 
snacks when anyone looks even remotely peckish..
 
4. Q Parental Units refrain from mentioning that only 1.5 seconds passed 
between the time Q and Jean-Luc left the Alpha Quadrant to the time they got 
to Chez Q, and that everyone knows that trip should take at least 2 seconds.
 
5. Everyone understands when Jean-Luc needs to work on year-end reports, even 
over the holidays.
 
6. Q Parental Units think pizza cutters make good stocking stuffers.
 
7. No one minds too much when Q and Jean-Luc disappear into the guest bedroom 
to "rest." 
 
8. Q Parental Units don't look shocked when Jean-Luc swears.
 
9. Mom Q loves shopping the After Christmas Sales and can be counted on to 
drop a fair amount money on anyone who goes shopping with her. 
 
10. Q Parental Units insist on treating Jean-Luc like a member of the family.


On this Solstice, I'd like to wish everyone an enjoyable holiday season, for 
whichever holiday you celebrate,

Ruth
