Thing the First: Over
HERE is the Week 7 poll for
therealljidol. This week's topic was "Brouhaha." I'm still down in Tribe 6. I don't want to make a big deal of it, but should you feel like casting a vote for myself or any of the other remarkable writers that are still in this competition, you have until 9:00 PM EST on Tuesday (technically, today) to go do so. Thank you!
Thing the Second: Knight and I went driving tonight to look at Christmas lights. I love the really cool ones, but they seem to be few and far between. A large percentage of the houses don't do much of anything, a moderate amount do a little something - a few strands around trees, or net lights or the like - and a small percentage go all Christmas Vacation, which is always fun to see. There have even been a few that blinked on and off in coordination with a musical track, including one of the local fire stations. Nifty, that!
Thing the Third: It started snowing while we were out driving around. It's a very light snow, but it is sticking, which on one hand means my car should have more traction on the driveway, but on the other hand... well, snow. LOL. I like it at this time of year - I just hope the roads are clear enough that we have no problem driving up to Newport after I get off work on Wednesday to go see Tron: Legacy at the IMAX with
trekwriter and
abracadavey.
Thing(s) the Fourth:
Sorry it's a crappy cell phone photo! I'm the One on the far left. :)
