...and now we go to our correspondant Vanessa in Langley. Vanessa, how is it out there in the horse capital of BC?

Well, blog entity, it's nice. It feels good to see my parents again, even though this Christmas break is a bit broken up for me. I'm on the mainland for four days, then back to Victoria for three, then back to here for another 2-ish then back to Victoria again. Ahh, work. I had a moment of panic on the ferry last night when I though that I had completely forgotten to pick up the cranberry polenta from the bakery that I had promised my mom I would bring home. Then I had to remind myself that I don't have to do that until next Friday.

A side note. I feel like I'm getting boring and old. Here I am writing (and worrying) about picking up a special order from a bakery while others are off to Italy to continue adventuring. I got heck the other day for mentioning that I want to find a career-ish job once I graduate. Will you still love me if I get predictible?

But Langley is nice. We're getting our tree today and I'm going to make mom a nice dinner of home made ravioli tonight for her birthday. And tomorrow I head to Vancouver to see all my wonderful friends. It's like a large reunion in Van because not only are the new Vancouverites going to be there but a bunch of us from Victoria too. Yay!

ummmmm... to be fair, my last adventure has caused me to spend my evening researching colon cleanses and parasites. hopefully the next round of "big bad world vs. natalie" will be slightly less, well, disgusting.

also nessy, no matter how banal a career you end up with, you would never be boring. why do you think you cause so much jolly laughter for the rest of us? because you are strange.

of course i mean strange in a darling, endearing, crafty, nerdy sort of way. and i totally want to be your friend when the apocalypse comes, even if you haven't yet learned how to make your own flint tools.

i'm sure that many others agree.
