slip sliding away

my parents' home is atop a very large hill. We got an ice storm today. I think I'm now effectively trapped inside this house with them until the ice melts or I could try sliding down the hill. Kill me.

We of course didn't go to the theatre today but since the weather was SO inclement, they actually exchanged our tickets for next week.

We're also supposed to go to the strip district for the annual get food for the holidays trip. Goodbye English, hello Italian. I have a list that's gonna cost me a small fortune btu I'm not leaving there with proscuitto and my weight in anchovies :-P


Put the tree up today. The very first bulb I hung mom said. "NOT THERE!" Wanna watch me kill her?

to put things in perspective.

I know a lot of us were whining and crying over Nano me included. But I did it. It was hard because half the time I couldn't get into the 'zone' Working on a light hearted piece of FMA fanfic now for the holidays. In slightly over one week it's 20,000 words. This is what I can do when I'm actually into the zone. (though at the moment I'm not sure I can feel my fingers)

Yes I suppose I AM bragging. Go me.
