Maybe in another 10 years.
And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's nuts.

Better is good, Ginger. Hope strength follows soon.
Safe travels, travelers.

I hope you feel up to traveling soon, Ginger.
I'm also flying out tomorrow, but just up to MI. I mailed such presents as I bought straight up, so I should be able to get by with carry-ons.

I know that as far as my mother is concerned, any day I can get there will be Christmas, but I was really trying to be there for Christmas. My only accomplishment since Thursday has be the creation of piles of wet Kleenex.

I am almost all packed, except things I'll need in the morning. Somehow I filled not only the suitcase I'm checking (with clothes, shoes, etc), but also an entire duffle bag (with food and presents) and my backpack (with my purse, computer, etc). Good grief--and that's WITH shipping probably half the presents directly to my sister! Really wish I didn't have to schlep the duffle bag around but it would be bad enough if the airline lost my bag of clothes (heaven forfend). If they lost all the presents I'd go batshit. And it's a duffle bag I'm not fond of so maybe I can ditch it in Indy and just carry the backpack on the way home. Maybe.

And good morning...I woke up almost two hours ago and am now waiting to board my plane. I hate flying back to Indiana--not only is it heinously expensive but my choices seem to either be leave godawful early, or get in at midnight (which is not nice on my sister either picking me up or being awake to let me in the house when I eventually get there!)
Cross your fingers my bag gets there with me, and I don't utterly blow the diet I've been on since 12/1! So far it's been working but it's much easier to stick to when I don't leave the house and eat alone. Eating family meals or going out to dinner or whatever will be a big test.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I get to head to the doctor today to get antibiotics before we leave town tomorrow. I guess it's better than going to work?
