I just watched lots of Noah and one Grace video. Made my day
Natter 55: It's the 55th Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm trying to decide if I'm going to my parents' for T-day. My younger brother will be the only one there besides my parents. The whole family is gathering the weekend after that to exchange presents, so I don't know if I wanna drive up there two weekends in a row. But my parents want me to come.
Now I see the error in not having my own family - no good excuse to stay in Chicago....
I think thanksgiving is just the 4 of us at my sisters. but there might be others joining us.
I'm t-daying at a friend's house here on the Hill. I offered to cook something (fresh cranberry sauce being my specialty) but she replied, "Oh honey, I have a caterer." Gotta love THAT.
I may do some decorating for her...but not much else.
Getting reorganized after my trip to stay with the oldsters will take up a couple of days (when I'm not watching VM dvds and getting caught up on ok!cupid), so it will be nice that everything is so quiet.
We're splitting up for T-Day. My wife and kids are going to northern Iowa with her parents and brother to have Thanksgiving with her great grandmother who is eleventy-one. I'm going to go to my family's get together which I haven't been to in a few years since we were always doing Thanksgiving with my wife's family.
Star Trek's 10 Cheesiest Classic Creatures
Episode: "Arena"
Description: A big lizard guy who sounds like a cross between a leaky steam pipe and a constipated pirate. He's strong and tough, but so slow-moving you'd think he worked for the DMV. Kirk fights him on the Asteroid of Unlikely Mineral Deposits, defeating him by inventing gunpowder and blasting him with a diamond the size of William Shatner's ego.
Powers: Strength, imperviousness to fake-looking Styrofoam rocks, flint knapping.
Weaknesses: A diamond to the gut, godlike aliens.
I can't believe they dissed tribbles. Stab Trek fans in the heart, why don't you?
I have a picture of me that doesn't make me want to crawl under a rock forever
it's a lovely picture, you look gawjus!
I'm going to a big extended family T-day at my uncle and aunt's house -- extended in several directions of in-laws' in-laws and whatnot. Should be fun.
My lunch seemed rather questionable, but it is actually very tasty. It is a tuna club (tuna salad, lettuce, tomato, bacon, red onion) on a tortilla with a slather of sour cream. Weird, right? But GOOD!
