My mother one half hour after joining Facebook:
I think I've had enough for today. I'm very tired. I'm just going to put pictures of the huskies on there for people's enjoyment. Then, maybe they'll want to hire them for a photo shoot.
9:33 a.m.
Best recent discoveries:
1. The inch of snow outside is the best kind — a cottony powder that doesn't even feel cold, just fresh and soft.
2. New Years Day is, in fact, on Friday and not Saturday, which I had somehow led myself to believe.
3. Because of Fact 2, Nicolas Felton's 2009 annual report will, most likely, be out a day earlier than I thought!

I love this feature in V Magazine. Hike up the skirts, splash on the color and bust a move. It seems that this year's sunny weather looks fit all.

7:42 p.m. (The Best Christmas Ever)
Yes every Christmas is great. It's fun to be with family, but this year was different; far less complicated than last (too much trouble to get into the details), and I also wasn't sitting next to a talkative (and deathly ill) German woman on a terribly uncomfortable overnight flight to London. Instead, we ventured out onto snow-covered highways towards our annual Christmas Eve party, and we woke up back at home, in sleepy Parkville, to a very white wonderland.
Here are a few gifts given and received:
Already hooked.
I am so happy I waited and didn't check this out from the library.
The Principles of Uncertainty by Maira Kalman
Nabokov's novel on pop-out-able notecards designed by my favorite, Chip Kidd
An imaginative and whimsical zine by Rob Matthews and Tom Edwards Roband published by It's Nice That

Currently listening to my parents work out the words to Silver Bells in the kitchen. But they didn't realize it was Silver Bells.
"Oh!" exclaims Mike, my father, "It's Silver Bells!"
Now they're harmonizing!
