Rhiannon Gammill was not born behind the wheel of a jet black coupe DeVille and has regretted it ever since. Like the b-movies that inspire it, Rhiannon's life is filmed in glorious black and blue. She has broken heels, smashed kneecaps and blackened eyes in clubs all along Red River; thankfully no one else was hurt. Rhiannon has been attacked by emus in Oklahoma and fended off a ravenous camel in Johnson City. She lives in Austin with a big dog and an even bigger library. Johnny Cash's autobiography is, of course, filed under "Religion."

Yesterday marked the day that I gave up the Ghost of Christmas Pressure. Last year I did what felt like an entire month of full-metal Christmas and this year, this year I’m not going to do a darn thing. No tree, no cadre of highly trained, thematically coordinated ornaments hung with military precision — did I mention I have a chart? — and no harvesting mistletoe in the dead of night. Nothing, and it’s going to rock.
Instead, I resolve to spend more time at bars, clubs and other places where a girl and her dog can spend quality time with good scotch and bad influences.
I think Santa would approve.

I sure do like reading your blog, it reminds me of what I really miss about Austin, but this one shows what marvelous good sense you have and that you have a profound understanding of the true spirit of Christmas. you go girl! and thanks for the entertainment. R
PS I will be celebrating Christmas in another manner because I have k-i-d-s.
Miss Adventure responds:
Thanks Robyn! Have fun decorating with those k-i-d-s!
