Thanksgiving
So, thanksgiving was nice, except that i didn't get to relax at all. I went home and cut wood for three days and came back. It was nice to hang out ( and by hang out I mean work) with my family, but it would have been even better if I could have spent that time playing card games and board games and drinking a little bit at home. Instead, my stomach is sore from splitting five truck loads of wood in two days and I have blisters from picking the stuff up. I poured rum on it today because I cut myself cooking up some (hopefully sweet) stew and I wanted to clean out the cut. I figured why not wash my blister also. That sucked. Dinner was good. I think that if there is one thing I look forward to thanksgiving for all year is the cranberry sauce. There isn't another meal all year that it is appropriate to eat this delicious food, but oh man is it good. I am really the only one that likes it in my family, but my mom puts it out for me anyway. I am pretty sure that I am going to go to Argentina in the fall and it works out perfect, because I wouldn't mind living in the house for another semester, but at the same time I can't be here in the fall for it. Kurt wants to graduate in December, so its the opposite for him. He wants to live in the house but he won't be here in the spring for it. So I will just fill his spot after Christmas next year and everything will be all good. I am pretty sure that I won't live in the house my senior year unless something changes like my desire to run for an office, but it will be my last year and I won't want to burden myself as much. It is kind of sad to think that this could be my last semester holding a position. After only three semesters I won't be holding anymore positions in the group that are important. Maybe I will do historian or something small like chaplain, but other than that I believe that E-Board would just be too much. We will see though. I may come back from Argentina and want to take a leadership role again. It will be interesting to see what ones people would want me in after a year of not holding a postion. Some guys right now say that I should do VPAR because I am good with the older alumni and I already have dealt with some of them thanks to being house manager, but there will be three new associate classes by then and the older guys that say I should do VPAR will be gone, and I will be old (literally, not just jokingly like everyone makes out). I think I like that idea.
