A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

No hangover, just tired, since I had to get up at 4:30 AM to take D and the kiddo to the airport. Got home at 1:30 from a fun NYE party with friends. D watched the kiddos (all 5) at the annual Kid NYE Slumber Party since he had to take the kiddo back to PA today.

A fun time was had by all. The only bad part was picking him up from the airport tonight with the snow and the horrible awful slick roads.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

so turned out only 8 adults came by and a total of 5 kids, 2 who do not know mac, so they would't go play with him. I have a bunch of left over food, but will eat through it all.

I CANNOT BELIEVE I HAVE TO WORK TOMORROW. HORRIBLE.

I also cannot believe that Friday is Grandma's memorial, so kinda a crazy week.

My first day of 2014 was spent lazing around. Now I have to see about a rental car and venturing forth in a long slow drive to the Catskills in the face of Snowpocalypse. I am resolute, and also skilled in winter driving.

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

So far schools are open tomorrow BUT our principal just sent us an email asking parents to keep kids home anyway because so many of our teachers commute from Long Island. So my new year's gift to myself will be paying our babysitter through the nose to work 8 hours instead of 2 tomorrow.

Ann, that's a ferret.

We spent New Year's Eve watching Clue. Lots of fun. It's tempting to think of it as a double feature with Murder by Death, but that might also be too much of the same kind of good thing.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I love Clue, although I wish I could go back in time and unsee it, so I can see it again for the first time!

It is not THAT snowpocalpsey here, but it is pretty cold (not as cold as at Cashmere's when she threw the boiling water and it became snow).

Also I am so tired, I want to sleep forever.

Because books.

I love Clue and Murder by Death!

It's not supposed to start snowing here till later this afternoon, but it certainly looks threatening. Must get milk, of course.

It's already snowing here. It looks likes we have a few inches so far.
