Aw! Then I won't bother. Even if it isn't as cold this year.

Yeash, I slept with both arms stretched above my head for reasons unexplained. Achy, achy.

That's killer on the shoulders.

Dehydration is bad.

Nudgy students re: papers is very bad (I'm up at 4 AM grading).

msbelle, I cannot picture the image you are looking for and the only platinum blonde model from the 80s I can really recall is Sara Stockbridge, but she wasn't pixie cut.

Who's doing an Advent Caledar this year? We just started our Playmobil calendar last night and Matilda is jazzed about it.

B. has a Lego Star Wars, C. has a Playmobil. Made just down the road from our house!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

We never had Advent calendars when I was a kid. I swear, my parents were the most unimaginative couple ever, who pretty much thought that if they provided a backyard and a swingset their kids were set for entertainment forever after.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I updated Dylan's iPod with the Angry Birds Seasons Christmas level that opens like an Advent calendar. Since we're Jewish, I'm assuming that's close enough?

I'm enjoying the Advent calendar over at Sherlockology. [link]

My mom just called, which got my heart racing. I thought something had gone awry with my dad. But no. She forgot about the time difference.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Because I never had one, I think tha advent calendars with stuff in them are So Fancy! I always had just paper, and the good ones had a picture inside the little doors that went with the overall picture.

Oh, family.

Hil (or anyone) - what's a good starter vegan cookbook? (I want to get my brother The Bacon Cookbook for himself and also a vegan cookbook so he can cook for his girlfriend.)

I'm inclined right now to go with Veganomicon because it has an awesome name, but I understand that's not actually a good reason to buy a cookbook.
