pie day! I want a pie day!
Sadly, today is a normal full day of school for me. Granted, this is my first "full" work week in two weeks, maybe longer. So it's sort of hard to be truly disgruntled.
Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

I'm just sitting here, sleepily twiddling my thumbs and waiting for them to send me home so I can throw a suitcase and a bag of presents in my car. I'm going to need more caffeine to deal with I-94.

Thank you all. I will be starting back on the dreaded game soon. BE WARNED!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yes, msbelle. I'm not looking forward to the travel, but I'm hoping the time there will be peaceful.
And then I remember that the holidays always have arguments, and I sigh.
I will hide if I have to. I'm already thisclose to being a shutin anyway. I can do that on vacation too.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
This is a food holiday. the only arguement should be about who gets the last piece of pie.
the dreaded game crashes this computer.

Wow, you could hear that? I saw the coverage in the paper and it was -- freaky. There's a retirement home for the deaf there, and of course they couldn't hear it, but they sure as hell felt it.

Now tagless for your comfort.
msbelle, that's GREAT news about Mac! I'm so excited for you.
I've had to put the game aside--DH's serious sinus infection has kept him down and I've been getting some serious double-overtime with the babies. I wonder if I can walk away with it unfinished. I probably should, considering I've got to go to the grocery, brine a turkey and get ready to go to the outin-laws tomorrow morning.
I'm three episodes behind on Heroes, two and a half episodes behind on Veronica Mars.
Oh, and I need to clean my house before Friday for Thanksgiving guests.

A resounding cheer for msbelle & mac! Best possible kind of Thanksgiving news ever. OK, a day early, but I'm gonna give my thanks to bureaucracies working for the people.
I'm surrounded by three pies. Ok, not surrounded, exactly...

I need it to be 6 so I can head up to Hot Springs. Or, it can stay 10 and they can let me go anyway.
