thankful for the 16 hour drive home

Thanksgiving was spent at the Kate and David Fischer farm. And it was was absolutely fantastic. On top of watching Sullinger and OSU clean up courtside, I got to spend quality time with the Fischer clan eating, watching movies, and, yes, playing Salad bowl.

here is the basic idea of the game: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=28969388597

However, my cousin had us branch out to my new favorite family fun game (which got extremely NC-17): pictionary telephone. It is exactly what it sounds like. Google the rules or ask how to play.

However, now with the holidays and Christmas break quickly approaching (3 weeks), yours truly will be on a huge health kick: a) to ring in the new year b) to combat my 1 day weight gain from eating more food than I thought was humanly possible on Thanksgiving c) to fit into my new swimsuit for my trip to see paige in Sydney Australia


I will lay here on Manly Beach

In this swimsuit


With my best friend. I have been researching hostels and places to backpack and I can hardly contain my excitement. I will post again soon with my eating and workout regime as I add the final touches. However, I am in Birmingham, AL and need some major ZZZs as I was up with my cousins playing those awesome party games until 3 am, and I have quit a few miles to drive back to NOLA tomorrow.
