As we head out the door and head cruise-ward...

[juushika]

Leaving in a few minutes for my parents's so that we can all drive up to the airport and get started on this cruise trip thing. I may not be bright eyed and bushy tailed, and I'm hardly eager to go, but we're packed and ready. Dev and I are bringing a PSP, Zune, two seasons of Dragonball Z, all of Reboot, two books, and a couple of films between us. On the last cruise we made a bit of an effort to get out and about, but we've done that dance now and anyway I hear this cruise line (Holland America) and this ship in particular leave a little something to be desired, so we have given ourselves full freedom to lock ourselves away and geek out in social isolation.

So, yes. We're flying on Christmas—which by the way is today, and merry Christmas to those that celebrate it—and aw fuck, we haven't ordered sisterite's gift yet, that may be late hun!—and the holidays are obviously all fucked up, and I don't want to go, and I started this morning by stepping in cat pee, but you know: fuck it.

I send my love to you all. What is it that they say? I'll see you on the flip side.
