A final post for the year.

So today I will attempt to blog from my tablet PC. It's been a wonderful little rig for me. I think I love it. I have been having a great time here with my family and friends. I hope everyone else is also enjoying a happy holidays. One thing is certain though; I miss my Eli quite dearly. At least life sent him a little snow.

I would like to thank everyone for everything this year. I loved the fondue and crafts. Our tree is extra pretty this year. Susan felled a redwood for her tree, I think. Some trees are so big they need a health bar and boss music. That tree is one of those trees.

Merry Christmas and have a nice final few days of 2007!

Did I skip November? Nobody liked that month anyway.

I think there was a holiday in November. We didn't do much. I think we ordered in some Thai. I was thankful for it.

Moving on to Christmas. I get two Christmases this year because I wanted to spend some time with Eli, then with my family. I will then shift my visits home to more pleasant times like when it's too hot here. I can stay there longer that way. I love Christmas with my family, but the traveling is pretty bad during the holidays. We shall see though. Maybe next year I will be near that delightful San Francisco airport again. It's all about how many plane changes there are. I have 3 this time around. I hate terminals. Flying is fine, despite my walnut sized bladder and tendency to panic when theres a baby beside me. Staring at me. With it's eyes.

It's just the terminal changes. Sorting out where to go and when.. wading through a sea of people so a man can run my shoes through a scanner. If I was going to blow someone up I sure as hell wouldn't go through all the crap to do it at an airport. I wouldn't do it at all obviously, but I'm just saying... why would I drag 30 pounds of crap along with me. See you in hell, wonderbra? Yeah, sure. I never liked you anyway, bra.

So it was barely even December first, and we splurged on a very nice fake tree from Sears. The sears trees were prettier and cheaper than Target. I don't know why but that's how it was. It's a very convincing tree. We decorated it that night as well, save for the topper (Hard to find a pretty topper anywhere) and candy canes. We since got candy canes and placed them on, and I would take a picture if Eli hadn't already yanked half of them off and ate them.

So I'm going home. I'm very very excited to go home. It's been almost a year now. I miss my family, the cat, the dog.. the hills, the trees. I miss Pizza Delight. I miss drive through coffee that doesn't taste like brewed arse.

I wish I could take trips back in time to when I would run around flipping over boards and gathering up all the snakes to play with. I guess I could do it now, but I think snakes bite people when they aren't viewed through rose colored goggles.
