roomie and i are silently counting down until we can pack up our passports and get on that plane to montreal for thanksgiving. we're both sorta tired and being in another place for the beginning of the family holiday season makes us really really happy.

really happy.
it has given us a reason (uh, excuse) to shop like we're crazy women.

two pairs of black pumps, a black/white chain print wrap dress, and a bottle of marc jacobs body lotion (YUM) later, i can say that shopping is the *perfect* antidote for not having a boy around.

not even a gay boy that loves to shop as much as you do??

Have a blast in Montreal. I'll be in Toronto avoiding my family as well...

alas, i'm hiding from my gay boy friends because i've been such a horrible hag. (sob)

did you know that the 'tradition' of spending the holidays with one's nuclear family is a relatively new one? like, it was totally a foreign concept before the 50's. i say we go back to the old model of spending our holidays with friends and great big bottles of wine.

just had a thought - how come our families don't have friends?

Don't do all your shopping before you get to Montreal--remind me to tell you of a place I found that has really nice hand-made clothes at reasonable prices.
