'Tis the Season...To Zoom

[mlerules]

Off to drive from CopperMoon to the Hive in approx 10 minutes, stopping off at the Orphanage for an Injun chow & read-aloud chai-party along the way. Dunno if'n I'll make it to the Pagan Jug Band this evening, although the rumor of a visit from the oh-so-busy Solstice Fairy might get me out. O'morrow's for last minute shopping, packing, helping a friend assemble furniture, and writing up a cat/Hive-sitting info sheet. Then on 12/24 I fly to SJC, get driven up to Berkeley by my l'il bro for x-mas #1 chez Mal 'n' Al and assorted fambily, thence back to San Jose for x-mas #2 on 12/25 chez Mom & J (again w/assorted fambily & friends), thence back up to El Cerrito for x-mas #3 w/1annie1 & her fambily on Boxing Day (12/26). Somehow I'll then make it back down to SJC to fly back Northward to PDX on 12/27. Yeah, I'm regretting not keeping my double-flight reservations 'til the very last minute. Next time I'll keep my schedule more flexible.
