I hate that the first night of Hanukkah fell on a Friday, as it meant I had to give up wacky night out fun for the big Friends & Family gathering at the homestead, wherein I must hear the same stories over and over again. And yet, good times were had.
So. Hanukkah is not a particularly important Holiday. There's a story about the oil that never runs out, and some sweet, sweet dreidel action. But really We just care about scoring.
( And the list O' prizes, not that you care... )
At some point, I will post my thoughts on Return of the King. Still processing. Probably going to see it again first. Also - will have to yap with Doc Flieger, because I think she's working on another book about the professor and I'm curious what she will add.
