I hope everyone is having a marvelous Christmas! I’m attempting to do a thing with a stovetop and a steamer as I’m staying at a friend’s place looking after her dog, a 13-year-old dachshund named Pierre. I’m particularly excited as I am in walking distance of work. It is very possible that, for the next few days, I can avoid driving altogether! Merry Christmas to me! I would say the entire week would be driving-light except there are a surprising number of exciting shows on the calendar, including a few that are not quite in the neighborhood. We have one more week in 2017, let’s make it count!
