We returned to the city of yellow snow and black ice, from the sunshine state, after a week-long theme park adventure in Orlando.

I Hate the Salvation Army
That’s right – another Christmas-y thing that I have issues with. Soon enough I’d be writing my own version of Twelve Days of Christmas. Speaking of which, if I still drive to work everyday and listen to the radio, I’d hate the Christmas songs by now, too. Good thing that’s not the case. No offense
