Merry Christmas!  I can't wait to go to Michigan!  I hope it snows...and blizzards...

Why does my dad talk to the television and radio?  Do you think he knows that they can't hear him?  Right now he is watching the news and there is a big snowstorm in Washington DC.  They were showing cars stuck in the snow and he was saying, "Straighten out your wheels, Idiot!"  He also likes to watch "House Hunters" and gets all upset with the people if they don't pick the right house.

Guess what?  After many weeks of searching everywhere I FOUND MY RETAINER!!  Yay me!
