Does this look like me?

Not at all. this picture even less so.

Christmas continues here -- both brothers and their fams are coming for brunch. So I'd better get dressed and the place cleaned up....

I had the house to myself for an entire day yesterday! This has not happened since... a very long time, several years I think. I did a few constructive things, dishes, laundry, a bit of clean up of Christmas debris, a couple errands, fixed a couple of minor car issues, and upgraded the memory on my wife's laptop. But I did lots of non-constructive things, writing, revising (okay, that's technically constructive since I'm prepping that novel for submission, but it's the relaxing kind of constructive), playing Skyrim (wherein I married a werewolf), and ate pizza while watching the book 7 movies of Harry Potter (which I had not seen before).

not at all, ita. wrong nose, wrong face shape. a little in the eyes with the raised eyebrows, maybe.

I have yet to get out of bed. I am committed to doing one thing for/to the house each day, so I am trying to decide before I dress. I really think I may list a bunch of stuff on ebay and actually decorate the tree. I am committed to keeping it up through mid-January anyway. I gave up on the idea of outside decorations and will pack up the few that are out today.

Maybe laundry also, I folded a bunch yesterday, and the wash can go while I do other things.

She has a weird artificial-looking hairline. Now I'm obsessing over her face...

I seemb to hab a code in my node.

And it is back to work for me. At least I'm snuggled up on my couch with my tissues right next to me.

Java, you are a hero in our house for that late, late, late night airport run for K-Bug. Thursday I get to drive K-Bug out to DIA in the wee hours of the morning. Her bf is picking her up in SFO and then they are going to surprise his family.

My nose needs to chill the heck out. I don't wanna be sick.

A bit, but your lips are shaped differently, your cheeks are less full, the cheekbones are angled differently and your neck and shoulders are way different than hers.

You're both v. pretty women, though.

Skylanders Wii: I am researching the cheapest price. Anyone?

Erin - the best price I am finding is amazon, but not sure if shipping is free or not.

I'm with Erin (and Tom's picture he linked to where she does look more like you but maybe only because I've seen a picture of you in pretty much the same pose). There is a similarity, but her cheeks are rounder. And you have freckles.

I have to say in defense of my brother that I do know that when I absolutely need him he will be there for me in a way that my other brother is not.

However, I have also thought that not wanting to pick me up is the excuse he gave me for maybe something not totally in his control. (Because I could have taken a cab from the train station but his voice was so final I didn't feel like I could offer that suggestion.)

And thank you for the blessings on my friends - they totally deserve them. And they are my second and yet more trustworthy family. It makes me sad that I don't have that relationship with my family by blood.
