In other news, dear Tracy came up to me the other day and asked me to take her place in the NUSO Christmas concert. I didn't mind, I didn't have too much getting in the way of this, so I said yes, because a)I'd get to be concertmaster and b)I get a free massage from her sister, Kristin. Though, in thinking about it more, I have this chance to be concertmaster now that the appropriate people are no longer able to fill the position. I'm like the Nancy Pelosi of NUSO. Could be worse... I suppose I could be the Newt Gengrich of NUSO, or worse yet, the Mark Foley of NUSO. I'll stick with Pelosi.
Next week Tom and I leave for Knoxville for Thanksgiving and I couldn't be more excited. This will be the first time since my freshman year of college that both kids will be home for Thanksgiving with my parents, and the first time ever that we're both bringing our Toms. Hopefully many pictures of my extremely cute and photogenic niece will be taken, so stay tuned.
