Catching up with DC

I had dranks with my friend from grad school in La and got so sad telling him about this year that I got drunk and went home and chugged a lot more wine and now I'm at the airport and I kind of want to throw up

steel magnolias

ma made our entire household sick over the course of thanksgiving weekend. i have a fever and a cough and body aches and an intermittently stuffy nose. i'm hiding in my bed in hopes of getting better in time for our big team-building night on friday. last night i watched steel magnolias, which was not i'd expected. i thought i'd heard somewhere that everyone dies at the end of steel magnolias, so i spent a large portion of the movie thinking one of them was a murderer and waiting for the big slaughter.
