Skipping town. Meeting Kip?

Wow, it's Friday evening already.

You'd think I would have had a chance to sit down and write before now, but no such luck. You know how 'those weeks' are... One day rolls into the next and you rewrite today's tasks on to the calendar for tomorrow. I'll never understand how you can work solidly through an afternoon, accomplishing so many things, and yet still leave work with a full to-do list. Amazing. (It's better than staring at the clock and twiddling your thumbs, right?)

At any rate, here I am writing a post to explain why I will be absent at least another 2 days from posting. (It's like calling to tell someone that you can't talk right now, ironically I do that too). Tomorrow is the annual Pollington Girl Christmas shopping Outing in Grand Rapids. We all leave Northern Michigan, head south 2 hours, meet up at the Olive Garden for lunch and then spend the day (and our money) at the mall. Coincidently, it turned out to be the same weekend as the bachelorette extravaganza of a childhood friend, the lovely Miss Rachel. At 7 pm I'll be meeting up with several girls from high school for dinner and frivolity, staying overnight, attending Mars Hill Church on Sunday morning, and then driving back home. (I am sure stories will abound).

I think it's also interesting to note that my sister Lacey called me this afternoon with strange and exciting news. She breathlessly recounted to me how she'd heard on the radio that Kip and Pedro from Napoleon Dynamite are to make a cameo appearance/autograph signing before a sporting event in GR tomorrow night... Perhaps I'll have a picture to post? We shall see.

Enough blabbing. Enjoy your Saturday, Everyone. May you sleep late, enjoy quality time with family and friends, relax with a good book, or watch your favorite sporting team play to victory. I'll catch up with ya soon.
