Because I got nothing else tonight:<\/p>\n

  1. Spending time with my family<\/li>\n
  2. Watching the Macy’s Day parade<\/li>\n
  3. Going on the breakfast run to Dunkin’ Donuts (I’m going to deliberately start using the old name now that they’ve announced they’re officially shortening it) with Dad<\/li>\n
  4. Singing along with “Alice’s Restaurant” (“You can get anything you want\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6”)<\/li>\n
  5. Piling on the side dishes<\/li>\n
  6. Eating pie (pumpkin and apple are the traditional flavors in our house)<\/li>\n
  7. Knowing I’ll get to see Karen in the days to come<\/li>\n
  8. Rooting for our respective football teams (although I only care about the Powder Puff game, and I think that’ll be done before we hit the road from D.C. this year)<\/li>\n
  9. Talking to loved ones who are far away<\/li>\n
  10. Kicking off the Christmas season<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    (I do not love the long drive, but it will be filled with audiobooks, podcasts, music, and an excellent traveling companion. But think of us when you head to bed on Wednesday night, because we’ll still be on the road.)<\/p>\n
