One of my favorite SNL skits is Dana Carvey as Tom Brokaw, pre-taping announcements for every way Gerald Ford could die. I often wondered if it would still be funny once Gerald Ford actually died, and today we get to find out. I vote a resounding and good-natured 'yes,' but you be the judge.

The SUV pulls away from the Gooden Estate this Saturday morning, destined for Miami. We have hotel reservations at the Sheraton Inn in Ft. Lauderdale from the 31st through the 2nd, although what we'll be doing the days leading up to The Game will be a mystery. My dad was proposing several other things we could do (Disney World, short cruise) but I was adamant that it be kept to a minimum. I just want to spend these three weeks as stress-free and minimalist as possible.
Christmas break is like the eye of the hurricane for 1L's: a short relief while thinking both "Thank God that's over!" and "Oh God what's coming next?" My first semester was very tough, and I'm pretty sure this one will be worse. I will have 5 classes instead of 4, plus I'll be trying to transfer (Elon? Mercer?). It's not that I don't like Widener, I just don't like Delaware. Specifically, I don't like the 500 miles between it and anyone I know. I always thought of myself as a home body; the past four months just confirmed it.
Anyway, that's the latest. A merry belated Christmas.
