White Christmas "Avoided"

So, Gavin said most of what needs to be said about the events of the last week. Berkeley was beautiful, but we missed the snow at home. Yes! Snow in Southeast Texas. I'm upset about this because it is probably the last time there will be snow in my yard for 20-30 years. Plus, it was on Christmas Eve! HOUSTON HAD A WHITE CHRISTMAS. Too bad nobody was around to see it. These pictures are from Galveston:



I'm at work today, because I have absolutely zero annual leave left. I have to work 9 hours today in order to make the math work out for the week. Luckily, things start over a week from Monday. And to think, management was worried that people were working too hard and not taking enough leave to stay sane. Not me!

Hopefully, tomorrow will find us at a gathering of some sort rather than watching the ball drop at home. 2005 is the 10th anniversary of my HS graduation, and I just spent a family vacation where I was most definately counted as one of the adults - not one of the kids. Some of the kids were in college. :P
