Eddy is still being mean. It's still -20 [at the warmest] with wind and snow and no sun. I went out yesterday.. we did grocery shopping and then I went to whyte in the afternoon and tried to start christmas shopping. I was going to go back today, ... I really ended up only shopping for myself yesterday... and actually buy things for other people, but I just can't do it. It's too cold and too miserable out. Plus, we were out last night till 1.30 so that can count as my outing for the day...
Gord and I met up with some of his friends to see the new Will Ferrel movie. Finally, one that i like [i shouldn't lie. Elf was cute]! But this was actually quite clever and sweet. and witty. refreshing.
This week, I get to work with animals again at work! I have my last day of 'clean side' tomorrow, and although it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, I'll be glad to be working with non-human animals again. They enrich things for me.
I had a thought dilemma this week. I kept thinking about how old i am [24]. I have a lot of friends who are younger than me, by a couple years, and some older. I was thinking about how i'm not even started my masters yet. how i still like to go out drinking, dancing, the works. how really, i haven't changed much since i was 19. or 16 really [except i'm much more clever about relationships. and males, really, i guess...]. i don't know.. i just got uncomfortable with the notion that i'm living the way i lived when i was a teenager and i'm in my mid-twenties. i think i'll get over this, or at least stop thinking about it.. i'm not sure where i'm going with this. if i'm worried about not "growing up" or about "growing up" at all.. it got jumbled in my head and it made me sad.
Christmas really excites me. i can't wait to come home!!!
