-happy sigh-

Yup, I'm home. Red's thrilled that I'm back (I'd forgotten how much those dogs shed... my black sweatshirt looks like it's sprouted an extra coat of red fur), and so's my family. I'll be getting together with friends over the next few days, and generally enjoying myself.

As far as holiday cheer goes, no, the Welge family still doesn't have a Christmas tree. Or lights up in the yard. Ah, to be in a family of procrastinators. And you guys wonder where I get it... ;)

Other stuff:
The choir director/organist at Trinity Episcopal church (my family's church) was ecstatic to learn that I was in town, and immediately asked if I could play at the next two Sunday and Christmas Eve services. Of course, with a welcome like that, how could I refuse? ;) I'll be playing a Bach cantata and sonata, plus an arrangement of Ave Maria (with a background of the well-tempered clavier) and (my favorite) an arrangement of Greensleeves, Es ist ein Rose, and the Sussex Carol. No matter where I go, I can't seem to get away from music... not that I'd want to, of course. :)

Also, I'll be going to see the Two Towers tomorrow at 7 PM CST. :) :) Hope all you guys at tech have fun watching it, and I expect to go in costume sometime with all you people who made cloaks... I'll be going in costume tomorrow for sure (with mom and kat also in cloaks). I can only wonder what Longview will think, but I'm sure the reaction will be amusing. ;) I'll have to get dad to take pictures... he's the only one not going in costume (never was big on the whole fantasty/costume kick). But I'm sure we'll all have fun. Can't believe I'm actually going to the opening of the Two Towers with family instead of techers.

Anyway, gotta go walk my Red now - night all, have fun at LOTR tomorrow, and catch you later!
