Nov. 28th, 2004 04:05 pmOk, sitting here and freezing my butt off as I wait for the heater to warm up the room. Hmm, probably would do it faster if I shut the door....*shuts it* Now we'll see. Wednesday night my dad and Amber picked me up from my dorm and off we went to mamaw and papaw's for the night. It's only about two hours from Columbus and it was sad that it was dark as we drove because I've never been on the north side of 23. Yes, south of Columbus is north to me when I want it. Hah. So anyway, lots of talking, Gangs of New York (decent though I was worried. And shouldn't burns leave more of a scar than just a darkened spot?. Realized just how backward my grandparents are when mamaw suggested I should be a politician. *shudders* Eww, it was bad enough just listening to everyone preach about their ideas of how things should be.
Hermit life does sound good, just dig me a cable line to a cabin in the middle of the Appalachians and I'll be just fine. I'd be a connected hermit. Me and the computer. Hmm, should be worrisome. Well, maybe a tv too, so I can at least watch Gilmore Girls and ER. Oh, heck just bring me up to technological speed and leave the house in the hills. I'll be an advanced hermit. So anyways, was actually going to talk about Thanksgiving. Very lovely time to see cousins who I haven't seen since....easter maybe.
( The insane explanantion of my extended family, one side mind you. )
At Thanksgiving, there was Dewey's clan and half of Kenneth's, Me Dad and Amber, Cindy and Roger but none of their kids and grands. It was quite sparse at Granny's (yet another great-grandma, the best out of the three) without everyone there and that wasn't counting the second cousins and great aunts and uncles. This massive gathering usually happens at Christmas more than any other time.
Other than that, not much happened this weekend. I lounged about at home and ate foods I can't get otherwise. Played around with my dog and the cats, worked on the embroidery I've been neglecting and neglecting the homework I need to do. Catching up on sleep and enjoying the fact that my room is cold and I have to pile on blankets rather than throwing them off. Can't sleep if it's too hot, very bad. Ok need to get on with my homework that I was neglecting. If I forgot something, probably will slip it in somewhere else when I remember.
