Synopsis

I have a few thoughts that either aren't big enough for their own post, or I just haven't gotten to them yet...which means I may never. So here is a synopsis of these thoughts.

1. It snowed today, all day. I find how the residents of DC react to snow to be quite amusing. Other than the endless hilarity that can come from 1 inch of snowfall in DC I'm really not a fan of this type of precipitation.

2. The wonders of Football. This includes my love of Dallas, and that love's beginning, and the horrible greatness that is Brady and the Patriots.

3. "The World Without Us" by Alan Weisman. I am currently reading this book, which is an expanded thought based upon scientific research about how long it would take nature to reclaim the world if Man were to disappear in, lets say, rapture style. The book also looks at how man, and all of our inventions have affected nature. I am particular moved by our affects on Megafauna and birds.

4. My Volleyball team won our league championship last night! NUMBER 1! Now we have to decide what prize we want: T-shit, Trophy, money off next years league fees, or a Pint Glass. I'm for Pint Glasses.

5. Christmas. Yes I know it's only December 5, but I have had all (except 3) gifts bought and wrapped for 2 weeks now. Tomorrow is my first holiday party. I have 3 more work parties before I leave to visit family on the 21st. That seems like an outrageous amount of parties, especially since my parents are hosting one the day after I arrive.
