I’m in Maine. There is snow! HURRAY!

Tis the season of food and road-tripping. The driving has been fairly uneventful so far… except that I might be a little hoarse from singing in the car. I am worried that I’ve used up my traffic karma and that the drive home might take well over 10 hours as a result. Cross your fingers for me on Wednesday.

Thursday evening I dined with the fabulous lisaf at a wonderful Indian restaurant in Nyack, NY. Friday evening I ate my vegetables in Hartford, VT with the awesome slyppi. I then went to a warm and happy bonfire at the Alden’s over in Plainfield, NH and crashed back at Juli’s place. Saturday morning came too early but we bounded back out to the Alden’s for Solstice morning stockings and breakfast yumminess. We met up for coffee and wandering in Hanover, NH with another friend for a couple hours then returned to Juli’s new condo for massive box extermination! That’s right, we attacked boxes with vicious enthusiasm (hyperbole makes you funnier) and accomplished a great deal around snacking and giggling. (I am in love with American Flatbread, Co. pizza now.) Sunday we hit Panera for coffee and goodies (and the Birkenstock store for happy feet!), then I headed over to Maine to see the family people. Awesome meatballs last night for dinner, xmas cookies for breakfast and a Maine Italian sandwich for lunch today. There’s a roast beef in the oven that smells delicious. It’s a good holiday.

So I am safely in Maine, there is snow, there is wireless broadband at my parents’ house for the first time ever, and I’m sipping Malibu and Diet Coke.

Have a wonderful Christmas, federal holiday day of silliness, and/or random day just like the others!

Remember… Christmas isn’t Christmas without disembodied Santa heads.
