Reeeeecap: Trip to the UP for a white - and often foggy - holiday. Spent pre-Christmas in Esky, post in Stonington. Saw some folks but not a lot. Then home; we beat a snowstorm and were happy to get back. We were happier still to still have four days of vacation ahead of us. Our focal point was the loft, which got two coats of paint and would have gotten more if we were any good at estimating (or faux techniques).
Our New Years' Eves have been major events: since we've been dating, Boston, Cleveland, and Los Angeles. This year we were happy to spend it on the couch, with homemade ice cream, critiquing our painting and wondering who allowed Dick Clark to go on TV. Today was a trip to Conshohocken to join the 'Greater' portion of the U-M Club of Greater Philadelphia to watch the Capital One Bowl. We hailed to the Victors, gloated in a great, great, shut-your-pie-hole-Urban-Meyer romp over the defending national champs. Then we headed home for a preview of back to reality: laundry, house mess from painting, and early to bed for work in the morning.
