a brain fart
home is so nice for the holidays. i love coming home to friends too. i simply must finish my mom's needlepoint before christmas though. and i still have a final on saturday morning. but it's been a nice week to avoid work and all things to do with school and such. i wrote to my version of a celebrity - a friend of mine from a class this past semester, and with any luck we'll stay in touch. it's been good to see so many friends already too. did i already say that? i guess i'm just not used to the socialness of home quite yet. i think i need to put "song for a winter's night" by sarah maclaughlin on repeat for about three days, and then i may just get it out of my system how much i like that song...so i broke a needle while doing needlepoint...seems i'm a bit rough for the fine tuned crafts, but i enjoy them like crazy. my mom is working on dispersing my resume to all sorts of humanitarian groups who might hire me for summer months, so that i can keep up the good feeling that working at an old people's home has gotten into my blood, of late. i'm so pissed about the timing with that, but i'll enjoy the old people part-time when i go back to amherst and not worry about the winter so much. i got to be the "wifey" to test drive a car with a male friend of mine. that was exciting, but boy, oh boy are car salesmen slimeballs. ah well. c'est la vie, oui? oh! and i visited my high school the other day, which i hadn't done since i graduated. it looks exactly the same, and it was so wonderful to reconnect with some of those teachers, namely mr porter, my french teacher (who reminds me so much of conan obrien...) hm. interesting. aye me, back to needlepoint and nutrition. perhaps a nap too. happy holidays, all!
