Yet another pitifully short update
Took out our Christmas tree today. I was sad to see it go-- it was a nice first tree, and we loved it dearly. I wish we had gotten to spend more time with it.
But that bitch had to go.
We got, from "Larry in L9," an old (and somewhat beaten up) Panasonic TV. We even handed over a phat Grant for it (Ulysses S., look it up, I'm not your Britannica). It is not the newest, shiniest, freshest piece of equipment we've ever seen.
We did, however, had to buy a new entertainment stand to hold it. It's pretty huge. I would say it's about 81cm. I could say it in inches, but it just sounds better in metric. It's a bigger number, and I like big numbers.
We bought some Jamaican Jerk spices from World Market. These are the events that make our lives exciting these days.
I am, for the first time, really getting a tangible sense of just how difficult-- how really, primally difficult-- this semester is going to be for me. It is going to be kind of rough, is all I'm saying.
I finally went and 100%ed Final Fantasy X-2. The little tidbit you get for this feat is not very sizable but certainly sweet, and it's more closure (artificial or no) than you are going to find for some stories. Oh, those stories. And I can say what I will about the tacked-on feeling of the happy reunion at the end, but Kari makes a really persuasive point when she highlights the fact that Yuna's life is pretty much one tragedy and sacrifice after another, and that, really, she deserves something at that point. Something more than a Hotpants Adventure.
I think we all deserve that much, at least.
Okay, that's all I got. How are YOU people?

Nate---I will be in Gambier litteraly all of January. Can I drive over your way at some point? Is there a prediction on a weekend or a day in the week where it would be good for you?
Tell you what---that's actually the only chunk of time all January I won't be in Gambier (will probably be in Chicago for a day or two before going to Salt Lake City).
I'll call once I'm in Gambier, we'll work something out.
So when I said literaly, I meant kind of/sort of/some.
Also, I have at least two spellings for the word litterally. Make that three. Yup. None of them are right. There may be a silent H. I refuse to spell-check that one.
what else would she need after a hot pants adventure. you sir, speak only in lies.
