the holidays have been bliss so far 

i've eaten delicious foods

wrapped many presents

excitedly unwrapped many gifts

sung carols (off-tune, but still counts)

snatched some amazing items from the sales rack

and spent time with amazing friends

my friend caitie paid me a visit

we jumped in her volvo 

grabbed delicious drinks at our local starbucks

(side note: I recommend the Caramel Apple Cider from Starbucks)

we settled onto the couch 

munched on Parmesan and garlic oil bread dipper

and pressed play

we dwelled into a little something called 

prison documentaries!

caitie and I love docs

mainly counter-culture docs

if lisa ling has reported on it; we will obsess over it

we decided on MSNBCs Lock Up Raw series 

its always wonderful to spend time with those people

with whom fun is effortless

people who you don't see for a while 

but when you do, you just pick up where you left off

that's one thing I'm most grateful this holiday season

effortless friendships

caitie's blog (which is marvelous by the way)

perfectly recreates our adventure  

intrigued? get over there 

hope that you are sneaking in some time with those who live far,

* i know i'm glad i did ;) *
