Saturday, December 24th 2005 (Christmas Eve)

For the last six nights I have housesat, arriving at 5pm and staying until 9am. On Tuesday and Thursday I pulled 24-hour shifts at the house due to the transit stike. I have also been working at HCID when not at the townhouse-- I am here now preparing more packages to be delivered in the coming days.

From Wednesday to Friday I walked a golden retriever named Casey from 2 - 3pm. She was very friendly and easier to handle than Nick or Jack.

I leave for Mexico tomorrow morning (Sunday). I am spending 6 days there for a Cress family reunion. It should be good times. The weather this week has been nice, but a few days in the sun should do me some good.
