  1. Arrived safely

    November 21, 2007 by ChiaLynn

    I’m at my mother’s desk, looking at my 8th-grade picture and my friend Thessaly’s business card. There’s a pecan pie in the oven (my mother makes amazing pecan pie — I almost won’t eat anyone else’s), there’ll be brisket soon, and I’m going to go upstairs and get a bit more whiskey.


  2. I was almost asleep…

    When I realized I’d forgotten to do a post today.

    NovySan and I went to Trader Joe’s and loaded up on road snacks this afternoon. Tomorrow, we’ll pick up the rental car, pack and put everything by the front door, ready to go Tuesday morning. (The snacks are already there, and we’ve done all our laundry — and put it away!) Then, Tuesday after work, off we go to Wyoming for Thanksgiving. Mom’s made cornbread for stuffing (and then she and the family ate it all, so now she has to make more), and they’ve bought the turkey. We’re bringing whiskey and the aforementioned snacks.

    Now if only the weather will hold…

    (Edited to add: I just commented to NovySan that this is a very boring post. He suggested I mention that I’m still blogging naked. While I’m at it, I’ll mention that I did blog clothed yesterday, thus proving that I have not yet forgotten how.)
