I am sick.
When I am sick, everything sucks.
Everything sucks.
See, that wasn't so hard. Can't imagine why I didn't do better in logic class. I have forgotten the sign for "Therefore," unfortunately. I will consider it implicit in the formula. New Year's was pretty fun. We had a good time in Cedar Rapids. If I hadn't been sick, it would've been awesome, but I mostly wanted to sit around and feel like my head was going to fall off. Oh well, we got to watch parts of the new Fatal Frame game and shoot off fireworks at midnight. That was fun. Tali and Loren coerced us into watching Serenity, which really sucked, but at least in a funny, mockable sort of way. I guess it was a movie directed mostly at fans of the series, but the bad guys just weren't that menacing, and the good guys weren't very cheer-worthy. As Mike pointed out, it's not easy to ignore the fact that it's a film about the Civil War and we're supposed to be rooting for the Confederacy (the exaggerated Southern accents don't help there.) Anyway, it was at least fun to riff on.
The new year is boring and stuffy-headed so far, or maybe that's just me. I'm hoping that things pick up as the month wears on. I'm still really worried about my grades, which don't come for another four days. Until then, I'm kind of in limbo, and irritating everyone by my constant maundering. Oh well, I am trying not to talk about it, and that's got to count for something. It seems like everything I want in this new year is either out of my reach or wouldn't actually be good for me to have. I made a new year's resolution to not buy things that I wasn't going to use, no matter how good of a bargain they are. I think I should make a new resolution, not to want so much. But wanting things is one of my major pastimes. It may go the way of the dodo and my once-annual resolution to lose a lot of weight. There's only so much you can do to change the way you are.
Anyway, this is 2006. A nice round number. I have a turkey in the defroster and Kleenex with lotion for my nose. I have a husband who loves me, all our pets are healthy, andd we have good friends and loving families. Mike has a job, I have school, and things are pretty good. If only this damn cold would go away.
