Clive and I are exchanging gifts and having xmas dinner tonight because we’re going to Anegada tomorrow morning. We’ll be staying there until Monday evening, and I can’t wait to get out of here for a little while.

I am a genius, by the way. I had the idea to barter my web design skills for a free stay in a hotel in Anegada over the holidays, and one of the three hotels I contacted agreed, saying that it was a great idea. So for the weekend, Clive and I will be staying at Cow Wreck Bay Resort and taking pictures of their hotel, the island and all the amenities that the place offers for a free three-night stay. Had no one agreed to my offer, Clive and I would have been camping on the beach (I can think of 1000 worse worst case scenario though!).

It’s a quiet little xmas here because 1. shopping SUCKS on this island and 2. we’re broke and 3. we have no close friends to spend time with. I’m really glad we’re getting away because it means a lot of fishing, snorkeling, swimming, picture-taking, underwater picture-taking and relaxation.

I am cooking dinner tonight. We’re having cranberry sauce, candied carrots, stuffing, chik’n nuggets (in place of the turkey!), mashed potatoes, green beans, wine and homemade pumpkin pie.

On top of that, our Nip/Tuck season finale has been downloaded, and we’re watching that! Carver= exposed! I can’t wait.

I’m far from religious and use this season only for eating without guilt. But regardless, happy holidays all!
