(Untitled)
January 6, 2007. A lovely Saturday. Whatever shall I do? Well, I could go outside in the crisp winter air, walk around, see my breath while breathing, maybe go skiing on the powder-covered slopes of Wachusett. The cold winter air just makes me feel so alive. Alas, this seems unlikely to happen. Instead, I shall wear short sleeves and wander around ( Read more... ) -
Christmas in CT
Merry Christmas, everyone! It's a peaceful Christmas morning here in Berlin, with Kevin's family. I hope they like me. I've been a good girl though, I promise.

sick for the holidays
Looks like I'm shaping up to have an awesome Christmas with an awesome cold. Wooooo! I didn't need breathing or speaking abilities, they're so overrated. Especially when it comes to hanging out with families I don't know. Perhaps I will not be baking on Saturday after all... perhaps I shall sleep and rest instead, cause yeah, I don't really have ( Read more... ) -
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas...
... but I think I'll miss this one this year ( Read more... ) -
eff you kitty, you're gonna spend the night... OUTSIDE
Stupid Oliver woke me up at 4:30am, knocking stuff off my desk. Because, ya know, I wasn't already behind on sleep, and hadn't ended up falling asleep till 1am, with a slight bout of insomnia. Right...
HolidaysRight now, holiday shopping is going pretty decently. I have about half the presents I need already purchased, and a pretty good idea on ( Read more... ) -
skiskiski!
Wachusett Mountain is open as of 9am today. I took a half day today. I will be on the slopes around 3-3:30 pm. This makes me VERY happy! I can't wait to try out my brand-new boots and my new-to-me skis (Kevin's old skis). I also can't wait to have a form of exercise that burns a meeeeeellion calories, and that I don't despise! I have the seasons ( Read more... ) -
I count my blessings and hug my luck like an old brass penny with two heads up
I got to hang with Jeff old-school stylee yesterday, going to Southeast Asia and bowling and shopping in Lowell/Chelmsford! I got to have Duchesse de Bourgogne, a deeeeeelicious Flemish Sour Ale (my absolute favorite, and nearly impossible to find beer style), on tap at the Sunset Grill and Tap last night! Freakin. AMAZING. I want more. And I got ( Read more... ) -
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I've been doing a lot of thinking about some comments left for me on my previous post. While I know, rationally, that talking to someone who's better-versed in psychology than I am, is a very good idea, especially based on how past events have shaped me, there's still the mental block of "my life isn't bad, I should be able to fix it myself ( Read more... ) -
Some people like to make life a little tougher than it is
Sometimes, I truly don't understand why I do the things I do. I complain endlessly about not hanging out with some of the people I was once close to. When I finally get some free time, an opportunity opens up. What do I do with it? I have a beer, and I bail. I go home to an empty apartment on a rainy Wednesday night with a sad, depressed feeling ( Read more... ) -
I wanna publish zines and rage against machines
Lately I've been feeling unsettled, unfulfilled, and unmotivated at work. I'm not sure how much of it is my ongoing fatigue, and how much of it is a true desire to be doing something, anything else. I've always felt like I wasn't quite cut out to be a code monkey, that I just don't have the focus or motivation for it, and that feeling is getting ( Read more... )
