Hey everyone!

I hope all of you in/from the U.S. had a fantastic and very Happy Thanksgiving. I spent Thanksgiving with more family than I have in a long time, and it was really lovely. Of course I didn't eat the turkey (since I'm a vegetarian) but everything else was super yummy. How was your Thanksgiving? To those of you outside the US: I hope you had a great past week! How many of you braved the crowds and hit the stores today to do some holiday shopping? I wasn't quite brave enough, so kudos to those of you who did. I'll probably be a way last minute shopper this year.

Oh, before I forget... If any of you are on MySpace feel free to add me: http://www.myspace.com/omgtravel

Now let's get down to business...

**New Music Alert - Varsity Fanclub**
They performed at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, their first single shows promise, and their debut album hits store shelves in January.
