Saturday morning: Up and out of here . . .

1. Welcome to [livejournal.com profile] pezgirl247 and [livejournal.com profile] ragnarmachardy,

2. Up at the o'dark workday hour of 6:30 a.m. So we can go to Bergental/BBM Barional Yule via Webb's Yarn Store.

3. I correctly guesses this morning temperature. It's 15 degrees in the North Country.

4. So my boss came in and gave me my paycheck yesterday, and I asked if there was anything else, and she said she'd given her notice and was taking a job with the state. This oughta be interesting.

5. I have managed to combine vacation days and holidays in such a way that my last day of work will be Dec. 23, and my first day back will be Jan. 5. We will be driving to Absecon, N.J., on Dec. 24 to visit [livejournal.com profile] alethea_eastrid's grandmother and family, then probably passing through Philly on Dec. 26 or Dec. 27, and spending a couple of days in Douglasville, Pa., with my Mom, sister and family, before -- I expect -- heading home. Anyone got any bright ideas?

6. One of the folks on my friends' list has suggested replacing the word "pimp," as in pimp my Polar Plunge, with "shill." Any thoughts.

7. The sixth photo of the sixth page meme:

Philly: Pat's or Geno's, one or both. Don't miss out on a sandwich. Even if you don't get out of the car, drive around the historical area and enjoy the views.

If you do come through Philly, stop by, we can have a meal or something.

6. 'Shill' just messes up the alliteration.

Didn't realize your family is so close (I'm in Lansdale). You and yours are welcome any time. (My job is closed from the 25th to the 2nd.)

I'll be available all day on the 26th and sillyviking and I would both be around on the 27th (he as to work on the 26th -boo, hiss!). The UPenn Museum & Library or a yarn store tour of the city might be in order...

:-)
