Countdown To Christmas 4

A relaxed morning followed by a few errands, a little work in the office (including dealing with below-average students demanding above-average grades) and a post-surgery visit to the back surgeon (and even though it was a bitterly cold day made an easy grab to keep his geocaching streak alive) and then went to the movies with twelve-year-old daughter (Alvin And The Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, which was every bit as bad as the reviews said unless you have a thing for Chipmunks and Chipettes singing Lady Gaga), and then back to La Casa for an intense game of Monopoly (teen daughter eventually wiped us out but it took a while as all four players had immunity agreements with each other) and baked-potato soup. Tomorrow will probably be another movie day (twelve-year-old daughter picked (and paid for) today; Southern Man will pick (and pay for) the next choice, which is currently a tossup between The Muppets and Mission: Impossible 4 or perhaps even both) so it should be another fun day.
