Worst blogger ever?

This could certainly describe me.
But I have so much to blog about. Some highlights of the past month:
1) Thanksgiving - we trekked to my folks pad outside of Philly and had a nice meal with my Mom (Gigi), my dad (Grandad) and Uncle George.
2) The evening post-Thanksgiving as my 20th high school reunion. 20 years since leaving Wissahickon Senior High. I was nervous going into it, and my expectations were low, but it was hella fun. Literally saw a lot of folks I hadn't seen in 20 years. Age is an interesting thing. Mullets and 'staches have been replaced by male pattern baldness and goatees on the guys, and big teased hair has been replaced with contemporary cuts on the ladies. I never had a mullet and still can't grow visible facial hair, so I pretty much look the same, but 20 years older.
3) Back to Bmore on the Saturday following T-giving, after hanging with Roni's uncle John, Aunt Sandy and cousins Andy, Lara, and Amy, and offspring Jesse and Corrine. We had a lot of fun with those folks.
4) Flash forward to the following Friday evening -dinner with 8 randomly selected MPH students at Iggie's pizza in Mount Vernon. What a great time - all were from my class and it was really fabulous to hang out in a laid-back non-academic setting. If I can ever get our house in order I'll invite that crew over in early 2008 for a "reunion" meal.
5) We are in the market for our next house - currently looking in Bmore and will buy assuming things look promising on the career front, negotiations in progress on the latter..

More updates to come soon!
