* "First of May", Jonathan Coulton

Being kept very busy co-touristing Rome. Yesterday we went to the Pope's Urbi et Orbi, today we went to Subiaco, tomorrow's Castel Gandolfo, so it's been pretty busy. Christmas came and went in food and good times are still being had. I'm not doing even half of the things I said I would when I had a little free time - such as writing Louisiana ( Read more... )

There's loads of stuff I want to say but I'd need more than the short moment** to myself I've got now for that. Things are exactly as one would expect***, knowing my family, so no surprises there. But since we're all a little wild on the emotional-pendulum, there's also been some squishy goodness ( Read more... )
