So my friend Rand's in Holland right now visiting with his family for the holidays. I've learned the following of his time there so far:
-it's freezing cold
-he's wondering why he went in winter and not summer
-he actually misses seeing the sun
-his step-father broke the second bathroom toilet their first night there
-they failed fixing it once but have finally managed to now
-he toured a working windmill (it was grinding grain)
-there's more cars there then there was the last time he was there
-it's really, really freakin' cold
-he's stuck with about $400 (american) in dutch money he can no longer exchange for euros
-he really, really misses his computer and dvd player.

*lol* (you can tell right?) Actually, it's pretty neat getting the emails since it's someone I actually know who's overseas. :)

Wrapped up some of my Love's gifts tonight - oh he's gonna love 'em - and one I've been waiting for since December 10th showed up FINALLY in the mail. That and my friend Jef ordered him "Smoke Signals" on dvd (you can't find the darn thing anywhere) back on the 17th with SECOND DAY delivery and it only now, at like 6:00pm, came via UPS. I'm just happy both mail things made it in the nick of time.

Food's cooking, I'm hungry and my Love's out there by his lonesome, so for now I'm out. Tomorrow's a busy day with my Love's family getting together 45 minutes south of us for brunch at 11am and then my family getting together 45 minutes north of us for dinner at about 3:30-4pm. Always a busy day - holidays are jam-packed full of stuff to do. Wishes to all for a joyous holiday season! :)
