 Dad! Please acquire the best of the Exponents album while you're in New Zealand, titled "Sex and Agriculture." I think it will be a great addition to your collection.
Happy Christmas Eve to all! I miss you all terribly, and as promised, am wearing hair shirts and self-flagellating on the hour. Greg's family have seamlessly integrated me into their festivities, i.e. sleeping in and chipping ice off of the roof. Good times in Worcester.

I have, for the first time in recollection, gone out without a good winter jacket on and caught a cold. Staying at home alone, feverish and incoherent, seemed like a lonely prospect the week before Christmas, so I drove up to Greg's house, where they are treating me very well. I always come here and feel like I'm eight, sleeping in a single bed in a wood panelled room (very much like mom's basement) with New England Patriot flags on the wall and a veritable library of Dr. Suess books. Well, not my childhood room, but Fred Savage's room from The Princess Bride. Hopefully this likeness (along with mainling tea and chicken noodle soup) will hasten my recovery. Send chocolate.

We had our first snow accumulation yesterday, leaving Providence paralyzed. Inclement weather brings out the dominant flavors of a city, and I'm afraid that this city has just exposed itself as unprepared, complaining, and entirely uncivilized in their treatment of the public streets and sidewalks.

Anna is visiting from San Fransisco for New Years
December 12, 2007 by Sadie in Sadie & Greg
Anna is visiting from San Fransisco for New Years. Mom is also sending me the remnants of Sadie's old patchwork quilt to renovate, so I'll have lots of quality time quilting in front of a fire over Christmas. The season is quickly thundering along!
My work schedule today is as such:
Volunteer with staff at food bank, 9-12
Goodbye lunch party for work study, 12-1
VISTA gift exchange, 3-4:30
Campus Compact holiday party at RISD, 4:30-6
And then a fancy holiday party at my roommate's work from 6-8.
Whew! So much socializing is delightfully diverting, but so exhausting. I've eaten an extra hand full of almonds to keep my fires burning.

 Seraph, your travels look remarkable! Nothing to report from Providence, although I woke up early to make macaroni and cheese from scratch for the office holiday party. With long workshops, holiday parties and graduate school paperwork filling up the week, things have been a bit frantic. I'm hoping to relax this weekend, go to a show at my favorite hipster arts organization, and have a big Boston dinner with Greg's extended family. While they will never be able to replace you, I have decided to stay here for Christmas. Instead, I'm replacing you with a stack of movies!
