too long gone
Dec. 2nd, 2002 05:53 pmMany days I think I should write what I've done in here, and then I haven't managed to do so. I toyed with the idea of backdating and adding some entries, and may still do so, but that's too much to worry about right now, and I don't want that standing in the way of writing *something* so I stay in the habit.
Real life has been too busy to write. Tim's brother and his girlfriend stayed with us for a week, and his parents were in town as well, staying at an aunt's, which meant a lot of entertaining. Not that I'm complaining, since it also meant a lot of free food at the good chinese place, and at Gordon Biersch (mmm garlic fries), and, of course, that whole Thanksgiving thing. They came in last Saturday, and it was quite a lovely arrangement really. Get taken out, hang out for a few hours, and then we got to send the parents away to another house. Much better arrangement that way, and no worrying about scandalizing the houseguests (especially since they showered together, not even concerned that their older brother and his wife were home/in the next room).
Thanksgiving was lovely - not the over-the-top-ness of my family's T-day, which generally included a turkey, crown roast of pork, and roast beef. We had all the usual stuff, plus Tim and I baked brie for appetizers, baked fresh cranberry walnut yeasted bread, and made the rather cliche but still tasty chex mix. I ate home made pecan pie leftovers for two days. Yum...
and now, back to advising, and rehearsing for Messiah (which is this weekend! eek!), and a new season of (reruns of) Buffy on F/X which I haven't seen, just when UPN went back to reruns. speaking of, must get upstairs and set the vcr...
