I don't even wish for snow.
Dec. 27th, 2008 06:42 pmMy Christmas presents are relevant to my interests:

The books are Team of Rivals, Jefferson's Secrets, Thomas Jefferson: An Intimate History, and American Lion. The pandas are Ty, Schleich (♥ Schleich), and two luggage tags. "Two luggage tags?" My mom: "They were bogo--I had to get my free one!" As for the rest of my gifts, they were very cool and I appreciated everything, but...

Oh, hey!

OMG, book club.
There is a hilarious surprise hidden in this post. I'd forgotten about someone who would be attending the President-Elect's meeting with the governors, mainly because I'd forgotten said person was a governor, mainly because I'd forgotten said person. Then I saw that post and LOLed. And what is with all the flags? Who set up this room--Jim Prentice?

You may tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, VIRGINIA, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.
Happy holidays.
