"When there is nothing left to burn, you have to set yourself on fire"
Santa Claus I'm coming to town... Sunday night to be exact.
I'm really looking forward to being back home, a whole lot.
My goals for this extended Christmas visit are to try snowboarding with Lisa, get out for some hikes, see a bunch of movies, have a christmas baking day (gingerbread nuclear reactor?), get back into the academic groove and at least sign up for a class or two I can actually stick with amongst all this not-knowing-what-I'm-doing-next-month craziness, relearn to knit, and... and... and... get out and hopefully see people. The fall into seasonal darkness was the worst time to move to a big city, and I've barely been in touch with my blood relations, let alone everyone else. Settling in was not as uncomfortable as I feared it could be, but it does take much longer than one might expect. My frail to begin with social life has taken another beating. But it'll live.
I'm definitely going to Definitely Superior's Jingle Ball on the 16th - who's with me?
