Here’s the deal: we will be arriving in Michigan Christmas Eve. Christmas proper will be conducted in Battle Creek, with a second Christmas celebration taking place the following day (Monday) in Vicksburg. Apart from that, we are generally splitting time between family homes in the two spots, and moms have been warned that we would like to see our friends at least once or twice as well. Sadly, New Year’s Eve will be the night we will be trying to hit the hay early to head out at the crack of New Year’s Day to get back here in time for work when it commences. Blah!
HOWEVER—please do keep us in-mind and in-formed of potential jollity (apart from NYE) that week, won’t you? We miss you bastards.

Woo Hoo!
I got the week off and I’ll be looking for hugs in all the right places! Hit me up, be-otches! “Way you at?”
excellent!
excellent!
And your little dog, too?
There will be rejoicing.
yayus!
…and our little dawg too! Actually our chunker dog! She is not little enough right now, poor rectangular beast.
Ron—we’ll be in BC, ya know! Hell yeahj!
Just so you know...
I AM SO EXCITED!!!
My time off request is lying in wait on the boss’s desk. Weeknights! Yeah, babeee!
