Post Holiday Post
Hey all! Hope your holidays went well. Mine were awesome! I have the greatest husband and kitty in the world. The two of them teamed up to send me to Miami as a Christmas gift. We went to my mother-in-law's for Christmas and ate a lot and watched tv. (I also did quite a bit of reading. I finished Terry Pratchett's Wee Free Men. It's a pretty good book. There were times I laughed out loud and everyone looked at me like I was nuts.) My mother-in-law makes the best fruit salad known to man. It's called five cup salad, and it's a cross between fruit salad and ambrosia.

Yesterday, we came home and gave the kitty his presents (a laser pointer and a catnip toy.) He was very happy to see us, and even happier to play with his new toys. Then, we went out again and got my husband new glasses which he desperately needed and also which look really good on him. ^_^ My husband made iced tea with his new iced tea maker (which he really likes but was not too fond of the herbal fruit teas that I picked out) and we settled down to play some W.O.W. in preparation for the new expanion.

Those of you who are coming to Miami, have you picked a storybook character for the storybook ball? I am thinking of a few costumes: Sarah from Labyrinth by A.C.H. Smith (the novelization of the movie by Jim Henson), or Sabriel from Sabriel by Garth Nix, or finally, Bess (the Art talent fairy) or Vidia (the Speed talent fairy) from the Disney Fairies books. Do those count as storybook characters? I'm still not sure which to choose yet. The easiest would be Sarah because I have the costume already, but it's not really dressy and it's from a movie rather than a book. Actually, none of them are very dressy... anyway, what are you guys going as?

I'm so excited!!
