thanks!

Thanksgiving weekend, 2006, has consisted of eating, and tv... and that's pretty much it. Actually, more has occurred, one (of three) of my brothers in law came and stayed with us, which is always nice. Saturday, we used the Los Angeles public transit system, the green, blue, and red lines, to be specific. It was great! Only 3 bucks for unlimited use the whole day. Only bad part is that we had to drive up to Norwalk to the nearest station. We could have walked down to the nearest metrolink station, which is close, and taken it up to Union Station in downtown LA, but that would have added 15 bucks for each of us, round trip. Too bad we don't have those trains coming all the way down here, or at least somewhere closer. But, it's really not all that much longer than driving the whole way.. it took just over an hour and a half to get from hollywood home, which is probably about how long it would have taken driving the whole way. So, it was definitely worth it. We also bought our tickets to see Wicked, in April from the theater, so no Ticketmaster fees!
I did have to "work" on Friday, but I put it in quotes because it was super slow, and only half a day, so no big deal. Plus, since I worked that day, I get the day after Christmas off, which is a much better deal, if you ask me, and you should!
