I just know when I was a kid I wanted to be fabulous and wear Givenchy and light people`s ridiculous hats on fire with my ridiculous cigarette holder. I didn`t know what a cigarette holder was, exactly, and I hated smoke, I just wanted to hold it and give that nonchalant shrug. I missed all the stuff about identity and meaning and sexuality. In fact I don`t think I realized that anyone slept with anyone in the whole film. I was more shocked in Paris When It`s Hot because Audrey lies down on top of her costar. Shocking! I should rewatch that too.

Dylan's school was open today, so he and DH walked. I walked them as far as the bus stop, but when we realized that the chances of the bus actually showing up were slim to none, I headed home to take a bath and they walked the rest of the way there. I hope it's not just D and the teacher alone all day!

No idea how my groceries will be delivered. My street still hasn't been plowed so the truck will have to park around the corner.

Oh, and still no subway service in most of Brooklyn, including 2 out of three lines nearest to me. Basically everything from Coney Island to downtown is still being dug out from under the snow.

good morning. we slept in. 2 hours to get ready and on the road. I need to get our sheets and towels into the laundry. More family will be coming in to see gg in 2 days or so and will need clean stuff. also need to get the 2 boys in the shower and then myself.

I'm supposed to be meeting my sister in the city today to see Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson. I'm taking the train in, and allowing about an extra two hours. I figure that if, by some miracle, NJ Transit is actually running on time, then I'll just take the extra time to do some shopping (still need a few Chanukah presents) and maybe go to Zen Palate for dinner, instead of just grabbing falafel somewhere.

Harvard Square is quiet w/o the students- it's nice! Wicked wind has dropped off by half.

It's positively goofy that my travel was disrupted given the little snow Baltimore got. I mean, I understand that when they made their call, it looked like we'd get whomped, but I'm glad we didn't. I'll let the winds clear the paltry maybe 2 inches of snow off my car in the long term lot. 10" would've been a nightmare.

I've got one kid in the bath, one desperately trying to still be asleep on the couch under a purple blanket and the kitchen floor is mopped. Now, how to trick the 8 year old into starting to clean up his room...

I got to see my son playing the Wii version of Sid Meier's Pirates! this morning. Seeing him doing the sword fighting is a hoot.

I'm home! My cat! My things! My computer with porny fanfic that I don't need to hide! Goodness, it's lovely to be home.

Congrats on being home with the cats and porn and things!
