Winter Solstice

Wow, time flies! I didn't mean to take a two week break from blogging. It just sort of happened, mostly because our internet went down, and is still very spotty.

I think it's our stone-age modem. To illustrate how old this modem is,

-- It's powered by little hamsters that run on its interior to keep it going.

-- It ticks loudly and has to be wound up at least once a day, like a grandfather clock.

-- We keep the parts lubricated with an oil can just like the one they used to keep the tin man moving in The Wizard of Oz.

-- It's made partly of asbestos.

-- It does double duty as a Betamax player.

-- It was never the same after Y2K.

Reminds me. I need to feed the hamsters in our modem.

Happy & Merry!

THIRTYSOMETHING (!!) year old Asian American New Yorker, lawyer, amateur musician, curious girl taking a bite out of the Big Apple. Don't mess with me - I'm short and I look demure, but I carry a big purse. And I've just embarked on the journey of married life in Manhattan.
