Christmas Update
And for the third year in a row our travel plans were waylaid by snow, so here I am at 5:30am getting ready to leave for my uncle's house.

Random thoughts

My last visit tonight was right downtown in the city, and walking back to my car I was reminded of how much I like big cities-the tall buildings, sensory ( Read more... ) -

On the upside, I got a ton of work done today. I'm exhausted, and there's still tons of work to do, but I got a lot done today.
Oh, and tomorrow's Friday. That's nice too.
