Hanging out at home relaxing until the 29th. Then I'm off to a friend's family's (sans the family) timeshare in Fairmont BC for a week of hanging out -- snowboarding and a whole bunch of other stuff that should not be mentioned here.

That is cool!

I will try snowboarding again when I am on Oregon. And this time not on a hill a short walk from my house.

I'm laying around at home and I don't plan to do much else except fill out scholarship applications for the next month.

My brother's home til the end of the week, good to see him again (probably won't see him again til his wedding in six months, though he did make ominous rumblings about having a bachelor party in Vegas sometime in the spring...)
Tomorrow the whole family heads to my uncle's in Indiana for a turkey dinner. The three cousins there aren't my favorite people in the world, but they're far from being my least favorite either. My grandma will also be there, and doubtless she'll talk our ears off, but I can bury myself in glorious turkey, so all is right with the world.
Thursday the family's going skiing.
Friday's the Apolyton Chicago meet. Wutang.
Saturday through New Year's I'm crashing at a friend's house near Chicago. We'll probably drink ourselves into oblivion and gorge ourselves on spaghetti, like we always do when I crash at his place.
Jan 2nd I have to go back to the real world again. Ah well...

I feel your pain. I'll be working both Christmas and Christmas Eve, as well as New Years Day and New Years Eve. It's a clean sweep for me, having worked on Halloween and Thanksgiving as well.

My girlfriend and I will be hosting a small party nonetheless for a few of my friends who have nothing better to do on Christmas. I'm looking forward to it.

Yeah, well, folks want to have their morning newspaper on their front step at 6 a.m. Christmas Day, so I don't really have a choice in the matter, being the editor assigned to do 1A and a bunch of other pages Christmas Eve for Christmas Day.

Sikander:

Ah, yes, misery loves company.

I can't complain too much because I did get a 4-day holiday when Thanksgiving came 'round not too long ago. All I know is that I'm looking forward to seeing my family again, going to a movie or two, basking in the family home and eating out a time or two before heading back to my home.
