Joyeux, joyeux Noël aux mille bougies qu'enchantent vers le ciel les cloches de la nuit.

Well, I'm still exhausted, because Heather and I woke up at 6:00 to go to Laon for our medical exams this morning. My appointment was at 8:15, and hers was at 9:00. I couldn't understand why she left with me instead of sleeping in an extra half-hour and leaving later, but it's a very good thing we did go together, because by ourselves, each of us would probably be wandering around Laon lost. I have never seen a city with such a confusing lay-out. We had to take a bus and a trolley to get to the hospital. (Well, it wasn't exactly a trolley. It was actually a lot like a roller coaster. I enjoyed it, but I think Heather was terrified.)

I'm leaving for London tomorrow (Friday), so this will probably be the last update I make until then. I know I'm going to have a very good time, because I'll be in the heart of JM Barrie country and I'll be visiting family (however distant), but I am really going to miss being at Grandma's house on Christmas Eve. I hope the box I mailed arrives before then, but it probably won't. Until then...

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

 

Oh, it's all right, it's gonna be okay.
'Cause next year I'll be home
Come a Louisiana Christmas Day.
Oh, let the good times roll,
Les bons temps roulez,
'Cause next year I'll be home
Come a Louisiana Christmas Day.

Sable! That's such a good picture of him. Though it does show how messy our living room is. Heh. I will call you on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, depending on when I'm off work, so be waiting! And remember: "Pop the champagne cork/ Next year we will all be living in New York."

Don't forget the best lyrics! Have yourself a merry little Christmas / It may be your LAST. Heather and I were discussing our favorite Christmas songs once, and that one came up, and I told her that had been the original lyric and she didn't believe me!

Oh, right, I forgot that part! "Next year, we'll all be living in the past." I can just picture Judy Garland's face when they played that song for her. "Um... I don't think I should sing that to Tootie..."

Merry Christmas
