Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Sir GB, Tiger Cat and I all hope you have a fabulous Thanksgiving. Hopefully no one will throw a potato at you, nor will your pet try to steal your turkey (We are really hoping Tiger doesn't try this, she does love poultry).

Update from LA

So, Tiger and I did not burn in the latest round of fires...It was actually relatively far away and we live in the midst of massive suburban sprawl, so we are generally safe from fires.

We are getting ready for thanksgiving, we, ok I have been researching how to make gravy, as this is a task that has confused me for several years. Just pointing to my level of nerdiness, there was an article in the NYT demystifying gravy, which actually made a lot of sense to me, and my practice gravy tasted pretty good. Considering that I hate gravy, it was a pretty good attempt.

Tiger and I are awaiting the arrival of Sir GB on tuesday after he finishes his scuba diving training in monterrey. No scuba for asthmatics, so he is on his own there. I would much rather snorkel or surf than scuba.

In other news, I have been working out with a trainer for almost two months. I am losing an average of a pound a week, which is really good. So in a few more months I will have lost all of my dissertation weight. This will be very exciting. i will be sure to keep you posted, but I am already down one size...YAY! So I might even get some pictures of me when Sir GB and I go to Belize after christmas!

I am ok....awaiting flight home to check on tiger

So, LA is burning again, but so far my house looks ok. I am in the San Jose Airport awaiting to return. After a 2 hour delay, we might finally be leaving, and getting home. I will then report on tiger and her status, and if she has survived the wind and heat.

But this is how I feel about southwest right now
