Main Street January
Nina went to an overnight Girl Scout event in at the Lazer Zone. Mari dropped her off at nine p.m. Friday night and picked her up at 5:30 a.m.on Saturday. After a quick breakfast, she went to sleep and didn't get up again until 2:30 p.m.!
This was the first walk I'd been on since finals week in December, when my back started hurting me.

The Ring Has Been Lorded
Tonight, Pablo and I finished reading The Lord of the Rings. It was quite a challenge and a long time coming--we finished The Hobbit a year and nine months ago. But the last book was the easiest and the fastest. This is my proudest achievement of the young year.

Dolly and Thoroughbred Save Christmas
Dolly Madison and a Thoroughbred.
What you need to know:
A show needs to be put on in order for somebody to remain solvent (I'm not sure who). Horses wearing fake antlers play reindeer. One of the reindeer, Pablo, expresses amazement that people chop down trees and put them in their living rooms during Christmas. For the show to sell, they need a headliner. Fortunately, Dolly Madison is back in town, and she's available. She tells the players that if they want to be successful, they have to "lay it on the line." They sing together. Santa is recruited to join the show. It's a success!
Pablo is a thoroughbred.
"We're not reindeer."
"Why, hello, boys. Dolly's back in town."
Nina's solo: "Lay it on the line."
Pablo takes a bow.
