Had a great time out with my sister and a couple of her friends (who I know) last night. But OMG, four drinks was way too many (though one was DELICIOUS, and I vaguely remember announcing that it tasted like perfect delicate christmas??), and seeing Star Wars in 3D while hungover? REALLY bad plan. Had to take my migraine meds and nap for a few hours, and let my sister and her fam go to the friend's brownies and champagne party while I stayed home. :(
Am very ready to be back at home in Seattle, too. So ready. (But I don't leave until Tuesday)
Hope the breakdowns have been brief, Burrell? Tamales sound delicious!
I am now leaving about the time I was supposed to land. Goddamn weather in Dallas.
But my great grandfather's corkscrew made it through security ( I meant to check it but forgot) so there's that. Though the mortar and pestle raised eyebrows.
My parents are kinda bummed to be missing the big NM snow.
yes, meant to say my condolences, Suzi
Hope the breakdowns have been brief, Burrell?
Not too bad given the chaos around here during the lead-up to the holiday. And the pay off was good
Tamales sound delicious!
Yeah, it's an LA tradition but one we don't always partake in
I think tonight will be movie night, but haven't decided what
There's no chance of you getting stuck here is there?
Nope, plane is here as I type.
One of my college friends was not in Dallas, but a few hours away at her in-laws house....while her house in Dallas was destroyed in the tornado. Apparently the roof was ripped off, basically everywhere except in one closet...the closet where her laptop was. Her laptop with updates to her dissertation that had not been backed up to the cloud. She's a divinity student, so she attributed this to the goodness of God. But damn.
Also: this is my new favorite Yuletide fic. OMG. Hilarious. #rogeliban!!
