holidays!

I know, it's not nice to brag, but DAMN am I glad to be on vacation right now. I'm heading to my Grannie's house this afternoon, and will spend about a week there. My parents and I think my sister arrive tomorrow, and apparently we all get to go shopping Wednesday. Barf! I do have a couple more things to pick up though, so it'll be an adventure. The kitties are off to Grant's house for the holiday, so I've got their stuff all packed up, and the fish are going to be on a bit of a diet over the holidays, but supposedly they only need to eat every other day anyway, so they'll be fine, Jenn is going to come and feed them one day and Grant another, then I'll be home. I cleaned the tank this morning, I think they're happier now. Hard to say with fish. My one new guy is still kissing/cleaning my giant algae eater...I always assumed the big guy is a guy...and the new one is a girl (on some fish, I can tell if they're boys or girls!) ...what's Cletus's girlfriend's name on the Simpsons...Brandine or something? that will be this fish's name.

I watched Olive, the Other Reindeer with my students on Friday, it's such a cute movie. Sort of strange, but funny. Then the other night there was a funny funny show on called Robbie the Reindeer. There are 2 episodes, and again with the celebrity voices - Ben and Jerry Stiller, Hugh Grant...funny. Britney Spears too, but don't let that spoil it for you.

anyway, I'll be confined to ye olde dial-uppe for the next week, so updates won't be daily for sure. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday, whatever your celebration of choice may be, from Christmas to just being glad to have some time off work/school. Enjoy!
