13:53 Simon expressed a very vocal desire to come with me & pick up his mom. I suspect he just wants some Chick-fil-A. #
14:06 Glad I got here early, long drive thru lane, wow. I guess a lot of people were thinking "New Year's Eve, Chick-fil-A, do it do it." x.x #
14:13 Also I love Ben FM but omg they must leave 1/2 the discs in the player from the day before or something. #
14:14 They play a cool, semi-obscure song, then you hear it again a day or two later. Weird. #
17:29 I just spent the better part of an hour browsing in Borders only to discover at the register I left my wallet home. I'm officially an idiot. #

Writer's Block: Holiday blues

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 00:08:23 GMT

What is the most emotionally challenging aspect of the holidays for you? Do you enjoy this season more or less than you did as a child?

View 820 Answers

For most of my life I didn't really have any challenging aspects, other than worrying over what gifts I would get omg (when I was much younger, of course), or potentially worrying about exams and the results of the same. Two years ago, it was not being with my then-girlfriend, believeitup, which sucked. Last year I was with my then-fiancée, so that was fixed, but my poor dear had to work through most of the holidays, so that was hard to watch her go through. Harder for her, yeah, but still. This year, well, it'll be more of the same, I'm afraid. Thankfully I'll be there again to help her as much as I can, and I leave in just 4 days, which I cannot wait to arrive, omg.

15:28 Wow, when I went to bed, admittedly very late, there wasn't any snow at all. I know it was called for, but still. #
16:03 @Lethendy My folks said the same, I was still asleep then, hehe. And then it got worse around noon or so, and more to come tonight. #
16:09 @Lethendy Messy out now and windy. :( Was gonna go to the office, have instead opted to surf the net and watch football. :) #
16:20 @Lethendy Ooh, good idea! I think I'll put on some coffee to warm me up. Yay for comfort food! :) #

snow!

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 19:52:38 GMT

We got our first real snowfall today, and it's still falling. There's been about 20cm or so I think, with another 10cm forecasted for overnight, with lots of wind. I was planning on going to the office for awhile but the roads are still kinda messy so I'm taking a pass, for now anyway. Maybe after supper if they get cleared up a little, but I doubt it now. I'll likely hop in LOTRO and watch more football and then it'll be time for bed. XD

It's been a nice weekend so far. I got my main character to the new level cap of 65 fairly early last night and got to mess around with some of the main storyline quests after that, along with playing with believeitup and another friend at some of the newer skirmish content, which was nice. I still have three others to get through it all, and need to work on my main even though he's at the cap, but now I can at least relax about trying to catch up to the other players in the kin to get our main to 65.

Only another 12 days until my trip to Sara, omg. I cannot wait. I've one more trial between now and then, which I need to start prepping for, and a bunch of paperwork to clue up, but it's certainly doable and there's a light at the end of the tunnel now, getting brighter every day. Really it's only 11 days until my last day of work on that Thursday, then I go to St. John's for a Christmas party that night and fly out at a nice, decent time of 12:45pm on Friday. :D

Other than that, not much else to report. Listening to a lot of Avett Brothers lately, especially a couple of their live albums that I have, so much fun. And been reading more Harry Dresden novels, which is also nice, I let my reading slide for a long time there and it's nice to get back on the bandwagon again. Hope everyone had a nice weekend too! :)
