Today I finished my shopping. (That was actually easy. We "canceled" Christmas this year, on my side of the family. We all pooled some money, and are buying some needed stuff for a less fortunate member of the family. Take that consumerism! But I did pick up a something for the wife.)

Today I also turned in a chapter draft to E.

Tomorrow my sister comes to town for a few days. We're gonna see Wicked, eat at Opera, cook gorditas, make ice cream, watch It, and go on a gangster tour.

On Sunday, we head home in the rental car for five days, and more food!

Everyone enjoy your holiday!


On a bitchy side note: What's with getting rid of all the great columns on the Newswire? And who are they keeping?
