"All you gotta do is look at the alligator tail and that'll tell you which way's North."-Dad's exact quote as we entered Georgia.
The family took an intense Florida Thanksgiving roadtrip which I'd say is summed up in that quote.
We ate good food, did some puzzles, played some Wii with the grandparents. Also, us kids were surprised with an airboat ride where we saw some gators! I was trying to dress all rugged for the adventure (sockos, bear tshirt, etc.) and the rest of the fam had fanny packs, glasses that get darker in the sun, etc. embarassing. Then the family that gets out of the car to join us COULDN'T HAVE BEEN CLASSIER. The ladies dressed in their Lilly Pulitzer and pearls, all of them had Ray Bands, vineyard vines, etc. They were even classy enough to push the microphones on our headphones down so noone could hear them talking. My family said hilarious quotes: my brother, "Carlie Can you hear me? do you think Everyone can hear us?" the lady said "Yes." hahaha. Grandmom "I need to scratch my head but I cant reach it" hahaha welcome to the family.
Upon return to college my roommate and I have decorated our dorm for christmas. Christmas songs are always on (mostly I just play Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays by NSYNC over and over), and we have lights strung around the room. It's great.FACT: Christmas is the best holiday. There are great vibes all around campus, it's been a little snowy and real cold.TRUE LIFE: I feel like we live at Hogwarts.
So my friend told me she was going to see the boys from The Buried Life the other day, they were coming to her college to speak and for a meet and greet. I asked her if she'd get Duncan (or any of them) to write me a little note. She gladly accepted the challenge. YES. if she got me that my dreams would be complete. I also told her to feel free to tell them I'll marry any of them on the spot and they can feel free to facebook stalk me. Fingers crossed.
