Over The River and Through The Woods, To Grandmother's House We Go! Packed Up and On the Road.

Well, I wanted to get at least one shot of presents under my tree (as this is where they're being stored before Kermit is loaded up in the a.m. - "takeoff time, 9 a..m.," says Chitunga).

All the gifts have been up in my room out of the reach of Glamis, but I figure all will be well tonight because I'm home and with her and she's in the kitchen gnawing on a bone.

I propped up the tree so it looks like there is more than there actually is. We should be fine loading up the car.

I've got my podcasts updated (we like the news shows), a full tank of gas, and all my goods packed. It's simply a matter of getting a good night's sleep and driving safely on route 17 until we arrive (we might have to stop at Syracuse University to drop of a present for Marcelle from Alisha).

It's too bad the new Star Wars wasn't out, because it would be awesome to play the entire trip home.

Sadly, three items from Black Friday, ordered online, have not arrived. Two of them are expected in January, but the third is lost in cyberspace. I ended up getting Nikki another of what I ordered and am disappointed that I think I was scammed. C'est La Vie.

and Bon Voyage.
