14 Days to Christmas

How in the world did it end up just two weeks until Christmas? I’m not nearly done with my shopping! Just two more weekends (not counting this one) to complete it. The weekend before should only be used for those last minute purchases, and I’m not a last minute kind of guy! Anyway, I seriously need to get down to business and wrap up my shopping. I don’t believe I’ve finished up shopping for anyone just yet, so I really need to snap to it.

I’m glad it’s the weekend. Even though I was sick on Monday, the week seemed especially long and annoying. I think I need a week long vacation about every 2 months. I wonder if there’s a place out there that would give me that kind of freedom? Wait! What about school? If UW had a fall break, it would be the perfect place to make all my wildest dreams come true. How can I become a full-time student? How’s this for a dream – using my free time to research for an academic paper? Oh, what heaven that would be! Spending time in the library taking notes, assembling sources, gosh golly, what wonder!

Lauren and I are currently at a coffee shop that is quite bustling. There is a pink-coated child at the table next to ours who seems determined to cause a mess. She’s already destroyed her mother’s newspaper by spilling soda on it and has been instructed to cap her bottle. Perhaps the toy helicopter she fetched from a nearby toybin will keep her busy hands satisfied while her mother finishes her coffee. Or disaster will strike again, with the helicopter flying thru the screen of my laptop.

How are you? What have you been up to? I haven’t heard from you in forever!! Bye now!
