Flurries, Boughs, & Cones

"Baby Its Cold Outside" defnitiely fits for today. 'Dad' said look outside and I saw flurries and a dusting of snow on the front step and felt the blast of cold air come in from the other side of the screen door just before he headed out to take Pepper the dog out. We had french toast, bacon, coffee/hot cocoa for breakfast. Yum! He made us all breakfast and now I know where C gets his love for cooking from :-). 'Mom' is sleeping a lot but she seems to be in decent spirits most of the time. Its good to be here and they are both awesome. Its nice to know more family finally and feel welcome and cared about even if time is limited. We're just enjoying the time we do have and making the best of things. Aunt June is a hoot but sweet. Everyone here decorates their houses real early for the holidays. St. Louis is huge too! I think C and I are going to go out exploring later today. Tomorrow we're all supposed to be doing some kind of holiday dinner which will be nice. More on our adventures later.

I called to follow up on the GIS spot and found out that they are still in the selection process and have an extension to follow up again with if need be. Hopefully they will pick me for an interview which leads to a blessing of a 'we want you for the spot'. Keep those fingers crossed everyone please.

Baby It's Cold Outside
I really can't stay - Baby it's cold outside
I've got to go away - Baby it's cold outside
This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
My mother will start to worry - Beautiful, what's your hurry
My father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the fireplace roar
So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please don't hurry
Well Maybe just a half a drink more - Put some music on while I pour

The neighbors might think - Baby, it's bad out there
Say, what's in this drink - No cabs to be had out there
I wish I knew how - Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell - I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no, sir - Mind if I move a little closer
At least I'm gonna say that I tried - What's the sense in hurting my pride
I really can't stay - Baby don't hold out
Ahh, but it's cold outside

C'mon baby

I simply must go - Baby, it's cold outside
The answer is no - Ooh baby, it's cold outside
This welcome has been - I'm lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm -- Look out the window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious - Man, your lips look so delicious
My brother will be there at the door - Waves upon a tropical shore
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious - Gosh your lips look delicious
Well maybe just a half a drink more - Never such a blizzard before

I've got to go home - Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
Say, lend me your comb - It's up to your knees out there
You've really been grand - Your eyes are like starlight now
But don't you see - How can you do this thing to me
There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Making my life long sorrow
At least there will be plenty implied - If you caught pneumonia and died
I really can't stay - Get over that old out
Ahh, but it's cold outside

Baby it's cold outside

Brr its cold...
It's cold out there
Cant you stay awhile longer baby
Well... I really shouldn't... alright

Make it worth your while baby
Ahh, do that again...
