greetings from New Jersey!
I am in Madison for Thanksgiving, and will remain here until Saturday morning/noonish.
I got a later start than I wanted today, since I was insufficiently organized Monday night and then had to A) get a flu shot, B) withdraw cash, and C) buy gas before I could hit the road. But I made pretty decent time, aside from two construction-related slowdowns and one godawful car fire-related slowdown (there was some kind of accident on I-287 just past the I-80 interchange; by the time I drove past, it was just the skeleton of an SUV enveloped in roaring flames and belching pitch-black smoke into the evening sky), and I have now washed three load of laundry, finished and submitted my third State and Local Gov't essay, and socialized like a functional adult with my parents and Vicky.
And now I am going to bed, because it's been a very long day and I'm exhausted. :)
