Lets see…the last time I blogged I was gallivanting around NYC with my sister. Since then I have just been hibernating in my apartment since the weather out here has gotten colder and colder. It even snowed 17 inches a couple of weeks ago
Yeah…it was as bad as it looked. It was the first time I had to actually “shovel” out my car. I use quotes on the word shovel because, like the two desert rats we are, we do not own a snow shovel. So we started off using a dust pan and the lid of a big container box.
Clearly that wasn’t working too well. Luckily some neighbors lets us borrow their shovel. Three and a half hours later our car was finally liberated.
The following week was Christmas. Unfortunately Brandon and I couldn’t make it home this year. Although we were severly bummed by this situation, our wonderful families and friends sent us presents so that we had stuff to open on Christmas. My sister also sent Brandon and I matching pajamas (that she also wore too) for Christmas.
After opening our presents on Christmas Day, we went and saw two movies: Nine and Sherlock Holmes. The latter was the better of the two.
So that takes us up to the New Year…where I did absolutely nothing. I have been catching up on sleep and youtube videos. I have also been contemplating possible 2010 goals. Here are my top ten:
1. Make it through the winter (highly unlikely)
2. Run a half marathon
3. Watch the KOL “Use Somebody” video once a week and completely fall deep into Caleb Followill’s eyes
4. Be a vegetarian (already three days strong!)
5. Take the GRE and get into the GMU Masters in Public Health program
6. Finish my novel
7. Take pictures and paint more
8. Try not to become too obsessed with Michael Mosley and the new season of Scrubs
yummy.
9. See my friends and family from the west
10. Think of one more goal to write on my blog
Thanks for reading! Stay warm. Enjoy life. Watch Scrubs.
