i thought at one point that you didn't have the connection but I just figured Gemme had that one covered!

I was bummed you guys didn't make it to dinner and we didn't make it to the blues thingy.

Hopefully I'll be there again someday and we can meet up more that visit!

I'm home, but after a fun filled, people filled week, my quiet little house is feeling pretty empty. Luckily the dog has been up in the cuddle chair a bit but otherwise it's pretty empty here!

Ashman just alerted me to this:

Austin Empty Bowl Project

When: Sunday
Time: 11:00am until 3:00pm
Where: Marchesa Hall & Theatre 6406 N. IH-35, Suite 3100, Austin, TX 78752

Description
One of Austin’s favorite family-friendly events, Austin Empty Bowl Project has provided local potters, musicians and restaurants the opportunity to help hungry Central Texas children for more than a decade. Always the Sunday before Thanksgiving, for $20, you can purchase a locally hand-crafted bowl filled with your pick of delicious soups and bread donated by local chefs. All proceeds are donated to the Capital Area Food Bank.

When I say "ho ho ho" I'm not talking to the Hooker this time.
It's that time -- yay!
I mean party time - Xmas party time. (Hey, Jae will be visiting from California too)

(sing to tune of Jingle Bells)
Jingle bells
Party time
On December 10
Bring an ornament for exchange
if you'd like to play - Hey!

Jingle bells
You can tell
We will have a blast
Cookies, mocha, xmas music
And heavy hors d'ouevres.

Jingle bells
Nearly done
Come at 7pm
Trade ornaments, laugh and play
But no one horse open sleigh.

And bring your holiday.....par-tay....face.

....And christmas cookies or a fun drink if you want to bring something

That's:
-- 7pm
-- Saturday Dec 10
-- We'll have heavy hors d'ouevres
-- and Christmas cookies
-- and some kind of peppermint mocha alcoholic drink, probably mulled cider or other holiday-like drink
-- Ornament exchange if you want to play, bring a neat, fun, pretty, interesting, special ornament

Bring anything else you want to drink.
If you want to bring something, christmas cookies or holiday fun drinky thing
And any fun christmas sweaters to make Medusa twitch from 8 hours away.
And meet Jae (or catch up if you know each other already).

If you're a serious scrooge :grinch:, you probably won't like it.

:smileyXmasTree: How many days till christmas, durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr?

Of course your reservation will be accomodated! We will see you then buddy!

I just noticed that Blanton Museum of Art UT just got a piece by Anslem Keifer. I'm tempted to make the drive to Austin just to see it.

not only am i a serious scrooge, i have a grinchy lil heart. i do like you people, though, so might very well show up. happy x-mess

Yeah, we like you too. I'll make sure Pup doesn't make you wear a santa hat or anything like that, lol. Looking forward to seeing you!
