Recent insights:
1.) Vegan Eggnog ain't bad. Half the calories of the real kind. There's no eggs, and (at least this early in the season) no "nog". Then what am I actually drinking, you ask? No clue. But it's warm and cuddly and good to carve playlists with.
2.) Naps ain't bad either. Today I took 2. :)
5.) I have squirrels. Between my roof and my...well, maybe my ceilings? They seem to be staging bowling tournaments up there, with all of the black (tho green to me) walnuts I neglected to "harvest" from my backyard. I must have a "Vacancy" sign (in neon) flashing up there somewhere.
17.) I definitely need hardier party-er muscles. This season of Mirth, Merriment, and Merlot is just getting started and I need to rev up (see Insight #2). It seems entirely possible for me to bike 4,000 miles in a season (and I did), and yet need naps to get thru a tri-plex of social dos in the course of a weekend. Flex those felicitous muscles!
And likewise, after a plethora of 2 on the Aisle themed editions (from Body Parts to Home Sweet Home, and back again, the long way), my brain hurts. I am momentarily "out" of themes. Not to say inspiration won't spark again, BUT this will be a simple Mish Mash edition. Mini themes, only! Like Sailing. And Girling. But other wise, it's the Kitchen Sink. Everything from Guys and their Dolls to some Girl from the North Country. From Once to Roz. From Lonesome Polecats to Mimi Paragon. From Salome to Pass That Football.
Musical whiplash may ensue.
and these 7...wait, we're missing a polecat.
Oh, and I should mention that The Christmas Edition of 2 On The Aisle will be on Christmas EVE! Yes, the EVE is on a Sunday this year. Hot damn. I'll bring vegan (spiked by then) eggnog and wear a Santa Hat while broadcasting, of course. You bring the fruitcake. PLEASE bring the fruitcake! I love fruitcake.
Meanwhile, enjoy your Thanksgiving weekend, a relaxing holiday with family and/or friends, and we can rendezvous, post-feast, at the Kitchen Sink. I'll wash, you dry. :)
