Xmas cookie orgy or no? If si, it’s gotta be this weekend. Does anybody really need Peanut-butter-chocolaty-melty balls?

Starting the Xmas freakout dance with Charlie’s departure to NY

Day of wind, v little rain, meeting drunken neighbors & TMI about their periods. At least New Orleanians are always interesting…
