Home sweet and more sweet home

I am back from the Peg & happy to be home. It was nice to visit & see my friends and family, but I also missed Clyde & Hal and my own bed. My fridge is full of baking yummies - peanut butter & marshmallow square, various cookies, my Auntie Mary's chocolate cup thingees. I also imported real Manitoban perogies and cabbage buns. I have enough food to live off of for months, however my concern is to get enough nutrients so I do not get scurvy. I definitely wouldn't want that so I ate some veggies and fruit today, as well as drinking orange juice. No scurvy for me. Anyways, good haul from Mom: 300, the latest Harry Potter, chocolates, deodorant, toothpaste, trouser socks (her term, not mine), 2 robes, and more. Plus, new mitts, gift cards, shortbread, slippers, etc. from my other loved ones. My CD was a big hit, as well as the T-shirts though the white one was a big snug so Mom may only wear the blue one out in public after all.
On top of the endless feasting, etc., I got to play Guitar Hero for the first time. Damn is that fun. I of course loved it but was also surprisingly not bad. If only I had more disposable income! I also had a plethora of Silver Clouds so did not feel too hot on the plane ride back yesterday. Speaking of which, for those of you who have not yet heard this story, I got a puker next to me on the plane ride there. Since it was New Years the two young guys that sat next to me had been out partying and the guy on the aisle seat started puking as soon as he sat down & continued to until we landed. I hadn't slept myself & was feeling crappy as it was so found it difficult to not start hurling myself. Needless to say I did not bother to have the free snack or beverage & avoided looking towards the aisle at all. I tried watching T.V. but the guy in the middle seat kept hitting my control buttons so I would get a French channel suddenly or the volume would go down or whatever. I gave that up & turned on my iPod but could still hear the retching. It really sucked, but definitely makes a good story. My only consolation was that the second half of the journey was puker free.
