Winter Break

I am currently ill and house-sitting. Over the last week, I have done little but watch Freaks and Geeks, play with dogs, and draw some comics. For most of the week, the family I get most of my human interaction from was out of town, so I became a nocturnal shut-in. Which was, you know, fun, I guess, but kind of left me lonely. I mean, these three kings dogs are great and everything, but they are kind of difficult to carry on a conversation with.

Being nocturnal and car-less works a lot less well when my nocturnal cousin with a car isn't available.

I HAVE NO RESOLUTIONS FOR 2010 BECAUSE I AM ALREADY TOTALLY AWESOME okay that's not true, I plan to get more work done and do my history paper early in case of last-minute trips out-of-state/across-the-state, and not slack off in all my classes. Additionally, I'm going to try to save some of my money, so I can afford to live in an apartment in the fall instead of in the dorms. I like living on campus and everything, but there is this dog, you see, and some cats, and basically I'm losing my mind not living with animals. I guess I might try to drink less soda.

Anyway, that family is back now and we went out to dinner and I was referred to as "the third daughter." I am, in fact, a niece/cousin. But given that I spend so much time with them, I guess it's understandable.

For Christmas I got: books, socks, a blanket, and a colander. MY LIFE IS SO EXCITING.
