Well, it's late on a Friday night - I've competed my work study massage clinic shift, ate dinner at a Tibetan restaurant, gone swing dancing (Charleston lesson - I need to dance more, I get winded way too easy), put up the new hanging pot holder in the kitchen and now I'm getting ready for bed so that I can go back to school early in the morning for my first myofacial release therapy class and training massage clinic (ah, two clinics in a row, Friday and Saturday). So, today's blog is clearly all "diary", at least so far, but this is my life right now, so I have some trouble thinking about anything else.
This Thanksgiving is starting to look pretty interesting: No one I know is doing anything: Val and Chris are probably going to Wendy's & Robert's, Patty and Dan are going to Dans relatives, and my cousin Laura is probably just working (she usually works weekends), plus I'll be in the middle of ripping up the floor in my bedroom! I have hosted an "orphan" Thanksgiving for the last 5 years in Philly, but although I have enough friends here now to do something, my Mom's place is going to be too messy (with all the crap in my room moved into the living room), plus I won't really want to take a massive amount of time away from the day because I need to get my room put back together before Sunday. So it's going to be the most lackluster Thanksgiving for me in a long time. I wonder if that's OK with me? It is what I have planned - I have so little time off from school, and I actually wanted wood in my bedroom floor, so I guess I'm getting exactly what I want - but it's still kind of daunting. This break I'm putting in a floor, the next break (Christmas) I'm trying to take care of storage stuff in Philly (I still have some phone calls to make there), and the next break may well be graduation! I guess I'll have to rest as I go, somehow. Gosh, this is a bit of a whine-fest, sorry (or maybe not, since if you're reading this, it's at your own behest - I have not yet told anyone about this blog). Hopefully I'll have a bit more energy tomorrow, and be able to make this ol' blog a bit more entertaining...
