You know when you learn a new song and it takes all of your strength to not sing it aloud? That's what The Con - the album in it's entirety - is doing to me! I am crazy with Tegan & Sara songs! I am also still at work and it's after 7 pm because my ride had a late meeting. I would have worn smarter shoes had I known she'd be 2 hours late. I can't walk to the metro in gold heels. Really.
Off to ABQ for work/turkey day. I might be missing out on some good family time because my brother and his GF are introducing the parents to each other on Thanksgiving Day. Dang! That just smells of drama. Especially since my dad is hard of hearing and her dad speaks Spanish. So I think there is going to be a lot of "huh, what did he say?" and "CAN YOU PLEASE PASS THE TURKEY" (because my dad simply speaks louder when someone doesn't understand him) and I am going to miss out on every last moment of it. Good luck, J and M. May I suggest you have a bottle of scotch handy to ease the aggravation. I'll be drinking at a casino with my faux-in-laws. Hells yeah!

Nah, no drama. M's folks are 100% bilingual so I don't expect that to pose any difficulty. The hard of hearingness all around the table will be fun, though. We'll have to head off Dad's expected "loud talking to people with accents" to kick in. He still does it to Uncle Frank.
