Ooh! I just got a Christmas present from my cousin, and it's a GREAT picture of my parents and me, taken at her wedding. So nice to have a good recent picture of the three of us. Hooray.

Back from our East Bay jaunt and JZ has completely rearranged our bedroom to make room for Matilda's new, double decker (bottom area being play space) bed which is her present from her grandfather.
I took Matilda over for a playdate with EM - they did Shrinky Dinks - and then took Emmett out to a movie. Basically any movie, which turned out to be Gulliver. Which was...eh. Neither offensive nor amazing. Pretty much hit every beat you would expect from a Jack Black is Gulliver movie.
But it did have Amanda Peet and Emily Blunt in it, so there was that.

And Jack Black. Who is my movie star boyfriend. (Yes, I just finished watching The Holiday , why do you ask?)
Jack Black SUXXXX.
It's true.
Back from the North Coast.
Disappointing weather. But everyone there said it was better weather than where they'd come from. Absolutely amazing unlimited food and drink, though. Stuffed like a pig.
ita, how's your laptop?
The Holiday was adorable, though!
Broken, tommy. The battery won't charge, and the screen is wonky. I'll have to see how much fixing it will run.
But at least I have access to the data accumulated. I'm behind in backup.
Grocery store spinach is not as good as local spinach, even local winter hothouse spinach. But by god, I wanted a spinach salad.
Background check is churning along for husband, and the money talk was good. Sounds like this is going to happen. I hope we get to the actual offer soon.
I cannot work out how or why my sister and I were mistaken for twins so often on holiday. And being who she is, she totally ran with it. I wanted to run with being five years younger, but she was claiming five minutes older.
We do not look alike. But we got constant double takes. People are sloppy.
