Thanksgiving

Chelsea left me a message today informing me that Jill was considering purchasing a plane ticket for me to get home for Thanksgiving, as a Xmas present.

First, let me say that I am so touched and appreciate it very much. Unfortunately, about a week ago I became aware that I couldn't afford to go home, so I volunteered to cover a ton of extra hours in the lab and the bookstore. At this point, as much as I would love to take you up on your offer, I am obligated to work through my Thanksgiving break. In return, I have requested an extra long break over xmas, so I can come home for maybe 2 weeks.

I hope you guys have an awesome awesome time and I will be thinking about you. Will try to call in a few days, once things stop being so crazy (covering classes for one of my colleagues this week.)

My love and gratitude,
Sarah

oooo two weeks for christmas? it means you'll have to come visit us in NY and see the not so small kittens. they arent coming with us for christmas, unfortunately.

also, instead of making sugar cookies on christmas when it is always an afterthought and rushed, i was considering making the cookies here and bringing a bunch of them to mom's house already decorated. or i could make the cookies and we could decorate them at mom's house. any input on that? with so many people (including kevin), rolling out the dough and making it all go is sometimes a hassle....

as for thanksgiving, i hope you have a good time with whomever you spend the day with. i'll make sure to say hi to rich's parents for you ;)
