skipping ahead

I've greatly enjoyed my coffee advent calendar (thanks, Door County Coffee!) ever since Thanksgiving. For a variety of reasons, I'm only just today finishing up the last of the Day 6 coffee. And I thought 'I should skip ahead to the Christmas Eve coffee!' (Each 'day' lasts me for about 3-4 days depending on how enthusiastic I get pouring the grounds into the strainer.)
And I'm so happy about doing that! And it feels like a good reminder to myself -- sometimes you don't need to follow the arbitrary rules that you made up about a thing (like opening all the advent calendar doors in order). The rules were meant to make the game more fun; if changing them or breaking them ALSO makes the game more fun, do it! Skip ahead! Drink the Christmas Eve coffee!
