listersgirlInquiring minds want to know: why isn't every weekend a long weekend?

For those of you worried that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sallym might be a serial killer, I present my safe return home as proof that she is not. Or else idella, starfishchick and I were left unharmed to confuse the detectives. Either way, I had a fabulous time - we hung out, talked, played games, went in the hot tub, admired the beach, and ate much food and candy. A fantastic trip.
And then on Sunday nightvestra and I finally got around to putting together the bookcase I bought at IKEA. I'd count it as a rousing success, except that we put on of the shelves on backward, so the unfinished end is facing front. Oops. It's ok, it gives character, right?
It was very exciting, though, because then we got to shuffle and reorganize books, and now you can actually see most of my books. Whee, books!
We also watched Desperate Housewives, which is campy and silly, but much fun, and Real Women Have Curves, which I liked, although it felt a little unfinished somehow. The lead actress was great, though - at least until the featurette, where she was all Aah! Sparkles! And the boy was ridiculously sweet and adorable. I'm sure teenage boys aren't like that in real life.
Monday we went running in the cold and my hands nearly fell off. Let this be a lesson to you.
Then I went to the Starfishfolks' house for Thanksgiving dinner and games, which was much fun, and made me miss my parents. I ate, and enjoyed, brussel sprouts (shh, it's a secret). My dad was distraught when I told him this - he took it as a personal betrayal. Hee.
Now, I am hungry AGAIN, as usual, and already thinking of lunch. So, a poll.
