I'm packed, the cat is taken care of and I have a ride to the airport.
I'm passing through Detroit on Christmas Eve Day and the Weather Channel is predicting snow showers so let's all hope really hard that Emily doesn't end up spending Christmas on a bench across from the airport Starbucks next to Bobbie Jenkins from New Jersey and his eight sugar-addicted children.
I'm sure I'll be fine. Either way you won't be hearing from me until Christmas day because I'm not bringing my laptop. I'm bringing a screenplay, a magazine and The Once and Future King. That ought to be enough to keep me busy.
Have a Happy Christmas everybody! That goes for you too, Jews and Atheists! Eat lots of candy and bask in the glow of new stuff!
Have a very merry Christmass, Emily. I hope you have a great time with your family. Come back to us refreshed and ready to pack a punch with more wity blog entrys to close out 2007.

I read the Once and Future King in 9th grade.
ReplyDeleteI liked it, but I totally pretended I didn't.
It was the 9th grade. We didn't do books.
I chose it from the extremely limited collection in our school library. The librarian spotted me, got really excited and kept trying to push all these depressing books into my hands. I smiled and held them until she went away when I had to go reshelve them all and keep the book I picked in the first place.
ReplyDeleteI've never read it. I also got Ender's Game.
