Today the rain is bringing me down.

I think everyone should always have an improbable quest playing at the edges of their imagination -- you know, some heroic task that provokes deep thoughts and rouses noble passions even if it also incites smoldering torment. I'm talking about an extravagant dream that's perhaps a bit farfetched but not entirely insane; a goal that constantly rouses you to stretch your possibilities and open your mind further; a wild hope whose pursuit makes you smarter and stronger even if you never fully accomplish it. The coming year would be an excellent time to keep such an adventure at the forefront of your awareness.

today

Today I made all my meals for the week, went to the gym, made a mix cd, had roommate Christmas, watched Sabrina, and wrote thank-you cards. And it snowed!

This weekend Logan and I went to hang out with my family for Christmas. So good to get away, and it ruled having my bf along. I also finally watched District 9, Wall-E, and the Dark Knight. Wall-E and D9 were amazing.

I wish we were still eating my grandma's food and walking my mom's dog. Back to work tomorrow. ho-hum.

christmas eve

I feel perfectly content. I had some pretty hectic days at work but I am proud of myself for getting through it.

Things that are good:
-I bought myself new sheets, a new comforter, and a new duvet cover. I've had the same old comforter for many years, and it hasn't been white for many years, even after taking it to the dry cleaners. I LOVE my new stuff. I feel so fresh and clean and new in bed.
-Only ten more hours of work and I get to go to Idaho for Christmas.
-Things feel good with Logan AND I get to spend Christmas with him.
-My roommates rule. I am so grateful I have such a good living situation.
-The fog tonight was awesome and beautiful.
-I treated myself to a new book and some bath salts at the grocery store.

Hurray.
