Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday!  I’m working tomorrow, so I’m cooking tonight.  So far, it smells really good.

Am workin’ a 10-hour shift tomorrow, so: wishing you all a wonderful holiday.  Tonight is my night to cook: no new schedule yet, so I’m cooking for the weekend: a baking dish of stuffing topped by chicken parts, with gravy on the side.  I bought a stalk of brussels sprouts plus turnips (with the greens attached!) and a bunch of potatoes to mash up with the turnips.

On to the fun part:

Hai, everyone!  A nice set of pics to caption tonight…can’t wait to see what y’all come up with.

Something different this week.  The NYT always has some interesting stories in its travel section, and I’m going to post quotes & links to some of the more…adventurous…of them.

For example, there’s whitewater rafting down the Nile:

WHEN I showed up to go white-water rafting in Uganda, Josh, the Canadian rafting guide who stood barefoot in board shorts and looked like a hardier, hairier version of Brad Pitt, greeted me with a simple question: Wild or mild?

My advice, if you’re ever going to do this, is to choose wisely. Because the next thing I knew, I was upside down in an infuriated patch of the Nile River, a ceiling of white water above me, all those tranquil birds and flowers along the banks a violently disappeared memory and Josh screaming, “Dude! Watch out for the rocks!”

We plunged. The curl of a wave lifted our boat straight out of the water and flipped us upside down like an egg in a skillet. But instead of immediately popping back up, a bunch of us got trapped under the raft, with the rapids pushing it down on top of us. It was terrifying, because there was no way out. I kicked. I thrashed. I felt as though I swallowed a gallon of river water. I started thinking of that scene at the end of “Titanic” in which Leonardo DiCaprio drowns. And then, pop, the raft shot away, and I broke through a fury of white water and feverishly gulped for air. That’s when I noticed everything was a little fuzzy, which leads me to casualty No. 2, my right contact lens. Gone. I spent the rest of the trip squinting through one eye.
