Hi all! Buone Feste!

(Im in Italy. Ive been learning bits of Italian. Not much yet, but I started with per favore, grazie, scussi, and prego, and I now know buon natale, buone serra, dove, bancomat, uscita, numbers from one to ten, farmacia (well, that was easy), bagnos, osteria, musseo, bere, melanzane, and camerie, and a few othes. Im not sure how to spell that last one, though, since I only heard it when I watched an Italian-dubbed Mary Poppins last night. It means chimeny, Im pretty sure.)

Zito went to the Giants!

Fuck!!

Fuck!!

I thought the Mets had him locked up for sure.

Zito went to the Giants!

Huh. This is going to be an INTERESTING year.

Oh Hil, how lovely. Have a wonderful time!

off to get a calzone

I love Cindy. This is a constant in my life.

It's entirely mutual, Sunil. I know you'll meet the right person for you, at the right time, too. It's just a matter of getting your family to see that, and accept your person and your timing.

Hil, I didn't remember you were going to Italy! How cool! I would have mentioned this in my last post, but I hadn't refreshed the screen and seen your post.

Heh. I love the Plei x-posts.

kate, I knew you sort of ghosted away but it's very good to have you back. The big D sucks ass, and not in any porny way, whatsoever.

I think Liv had roseola. She's got the innocuous red rash on her trunk following the high fever she ran over Christmas.

Poor Liv. I hope she's better soon.

Kate! Dammit, I missed you! I've been missing you and wondering where you were and hoping you were okay. So it's great to see you here, and I hope you come back.

I blushed a little at the compliment, David. Thank you.

Um. I have to take a present to my neighbor and visit a bit. I'm being resisitant to this whole idea. Can I nap, instead?

Kristin, I got a book made of AWESOME that ties in classical poetry and literary devices to complementary hip-hop songs. I am so jazzed (!) about this unit.

Oooo! Tell me more!
