Thanksgiving Break Round-Up!

Short and Sassy Review of my time off for the festivities of the Turkey:

Wednesday:

1. Rather than racing straight home after my last class, I unexpectedly attended an impromptu lecture by visiting cable-teevee star Barry Wood of "Trading Spaces" and HGTV's "Hidden Potential." Informative and persuasive. ("Sketch, sketch, sketch!") He had a twinkle in his eye. Pics will be posted!






2. Dig-N-Save, my favorite store in the world, had me as a customer once again.




3. My last trip to Westfield Comics by Westgate Mall. They are inconveniently moving further west from me next week! Grrrrr! Pics will be posted!




Thursday:

1. My mother and I had our Thanksgiving meal with my great-aunt Lillian, who at 100 years old is still driving! After yummy stuffing and turkey (and watered-down, bland mashed potatoes) we drove out to the Hamden Cemetary.




2. Spent the rest of the day watching HGTV at my mom's and yelling at Tasha.

The kitties ACTUALLY SAT ON OUR LAPS!!!!


3. I made a mincemeat pie the night before, and it was still kinda good even though I fell on top of it the next morning as I walking out to my truck and I slipped on some stupid ice and landed right on my back. Ouch and yummy! Pics will be posted!





Friday:

1. My dad came down to Madison and we went to eat at Fazoli's! Lots of free breadsticks were consumed!

2. Jeremy came back from Seattle! Yay! I picked him up from the bus-stop by the Arby's.

Saturday:

1. Jeremy is back in Covance (for four days). I think he's becoming a lot like me!

2. Another Dig-N-Save expedition. I find a lot of goodies there!



3. Matt and Dale came over and helped me to tow Jeremy's van away to Goodyear around the corner to fix the starter cable. The van had been illegally parked every other night out on the wrong side of the street (damn you, alternate-side parking law!).

4. I ended up meeting them at Shamrock later on to buy them drinks for helping me out. I had a Bloody Mary...

Sunday:

1. It has been made painfully aware to me that I can not handle liquor. Who the hell gets a hangover from one stinking drink????? Grrrrrrrr!

2. I tried to do all my homework that I put off this whole break by trying to do it at Barriques downtown in one day. I end the study session deciding to toss out what I've been working on to go another route on a different project - only 15 schooldays left!!!!


Postscript: All the while, thinking about the upcoming AQUA-PARTY this coming Friday, Nov. 30th at my place! Yes, I am planning a party, if you didn't already know (from all my other sources...)
