I simply have had no time, or inclination, to blog it up lately. I have just not been feeling it. But here is a little update, until I get by mojo back.
Christmas Eve is here, and Noah is so excited. We are having a fun day. We woke up and drove by City Bakery to grab some Gingerbread men. Noah was only into licking all of the icing, biting off a leg - and heading home. It was sort of brutal. Anyways, my sister Molly is in the hospital in Winston-Salem, and she has been on our minds constantly. She had been thowing up for 7 days, when her doctor finally sent her to the hospital. Once there, they had trouble diagnosing the problem. So after a million tests, they figured out that she as an inflamation of the bowel. The good news is that they know what it is, and are treating it accordingly. The bad news is that she still feels horrible, and will have to spend Christmas in the hospital. We are headed there tomorrow.
As far as the last week or so, the coolest thing was that my buddy Heyward visited on Saturday and we went snowboarding. We learned to snowboard together a long time ago, so it was great to be together, doing something that we love. We immediately made plans to hit the slopes again in a couple of weeks. I can not wait.
Well, now we are off to celebrate what is sure to be a merry Christmas, and I hope that you have a great one as well! Jessica and Noah are laying out all of the stuff for making Christmas cookies today, and then we will snuggle up and watch the first round of the 24 hour, A Christmas Story! "My Father, who in the heat of battle could weave a tapestry of profanity that as far as anyone knows is still hanging in the air somewhere over Lake Michigan" = brilliant. A Christmas Story is , hands down, my favorite Holiday movie, of the comedy genre. My favorite all-round certainly goes to It's a Wonderful Life. That movie makes me cry, and makes me thankful.
Oh, and by the way - I have come out of my music drought and am listening to Santogold (Check out this song, Lights Out - it will probably make your day a little better), Tokyo Police Club, Sigur Ros, and the Broken West. (Thanks for the help Marian)
