I part this is why I suggested a Box Festivus video. It needs a song though. It needs to be funny but classy. Me lacking all musical talent (that's why I can be so judgmental about it) I could never think of attempting to write something.

Dinner was a success. All was tasty!! Now for a nap, really dont want to go to church as I will likely fall asleep. That is what happens when one drinks half a bottle of wine by oneselve?

Interesting notation. What does one do when the house has five half baths? :D

Can anyone tell me what 1/10th of a bathroom might entail? And before anyone asks, Yahoo delivers personalization content from various CA cities to one of my accounts - sadly it's not consistently the same area and it's not what I have saved in the profile ... The other account is still set as Reston, VA.

half bath: no shower/tub ;)

Are you thinking about coming West?

I need to talk to mom about beer provisioning. She usually does well but the stash right now is:

* Sam Adams Light (4)
* Sam Adams Octoberfest (1)
* Sam Adams Blackberry Witbier (2)
* Sam Adams Pale Ale (1)
* St. Pauli Girl N/A (many)

I'm thinking another kid has stopped by sometime over the last couple days ...

Looks like someone is a Sam Adams beer fan.

I think she picked up a 6-pack of Sam Light and a 6 (or 12) of the Brewmaster's specials. Don't know where the rest of the beer went or precisely why there's still NA beer in the fridge.

One hour until TK 6 gets airborne. :D

Hire a cleaning service because you know that there will be atleast 5 full baths and too many bedrooms to count.

Very nice. I still haven't started any of my intended activities (laundry, shaving, wrapping gifts, packing). Perhaps I should think about those endeavors.

Maybe she found rebate coupons for all of those. ;) :D

My last Hyatt Place stay credited perfectly - both the G2 bonus and Diamond bonus. This might be a first.

Are you boarding yet? Is the flight full?

Quite possibly - she buys the alcohol in MD or VA (I don't think I've ever seen an alcohol rebate posted in a DC shop).

Better start soon. Atleast with the laundry part. You can always forgo shaving and do the Euro-trash look.

I didn't pack until this morning. Thought myself quite clever packing the carry-on to the gills with clothing appropriate for IST, WVB, HEL, ARN & ORD... then realized I have absolutely no room for souvenirs. I think I'll be buying a back-up bag. :-:
