Almost there...

It's another Wednesday, another halfway point in the week between the last weekend and the next. Of course, there will be no rest for the wicked this weekend. I feel absolutely no Christmas spirit this year, to be honest. It's just more stress and work than it should be. When are we going to visit family, what are we going to get for people, how many hours can we spend traveling from destination to destination.

At least the next two weeks will be short ones, followed by yet another short week in January with the MLK weekend.

Lots of people have asked me whether or not I am happy that I went to NYC last week - thus avoiding the transit strike going on right now. Actually, it isn't too nig of a deal. We only took the subway twice, and I actually think it would have been kind of neat to be in the city at a time like this. From what I read in the NYTimes, people are generally just dealing with the inconvienence as best they can.

Anyway, tonight I hope to get almost the rest of the Christmas shopping done. We'll see how well this pans out.
