Thawing out

I arrived in Los Angeles late Tuesday night, exhausted and sore from my attempts at sleeping while occupying the center seat on an airplane yet still so very glad I came. In my two days home I've gone to choir practice, wrapped some presents, watched several DVDs (that's what break is all about!), improved my pirate's online statistics (she's got pretty good ones overall these days), spent lots of quality time with my beloved dog, went to lunch with a friend and shopping afterward (Market City Cafe and Ann Taylor Loft - it had been too long!), visited my former place of work and went to dinner for my grandmother's husband's birthday. Today I'm going to In-N-Out and to see the Harry Potter movie, at long last! At this rate I think my three weeks will go by all too quickly! I will be back in New York before I know it, but after I've gotten used to the weather out here again. I posted some weather information a week before coming out here. The night I posted it, the temperature got down to six degrees below zero. Wednesday was in the upper 70s here. Small difference... I just hope I don't freeze upon my return! There's a lot of Southern California life for me to live today, so I must be off.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas!
