well, i have ten minutes to grace you with my internet-y presence, so here goes.
lately i haven't been blogging much, partially because of a lack of madden and partially because i'm in a world of shit. shit of my own making, no doubt, but shit nonetheless. just within the last few days it's become painfully obvious that winter is coming around again (as it often does this time of year), and now that it's getting mighty close to the infamous 3:30pm Pullman sunset, bits of cheer are coming around as seldomly and as awkwardly as bits of chicken stuck between your teeth.
that was a horrible metaphor. i'm sorry.
anyway, i love winter. it's my favorite season with the possible exception of autumn. it's cold, and there's snow, and it pretty much kicks ass. however, unlike a lot of the rest of the year, which i generally equate with doing bizarre things, spending long stretches of time on the road with myself, and generally doing things that may or may not involve other people, i've always associated winter with socializing, communitizing, hanging out in tightly knit groups of people all huddled around a huge pile of food or perhaps a game of Perfection, and (if i'm really lucky) being all warm and cuddly with someone (usually not multiple someones). i don't know where i got this association, but as useful as it's been in the past, it hasn't served me terribly well in the last three years. last year wasn't as bad, for various reasons including the fact that i had some great friends around here and my christmas break was particularly excellent...but this year i'm a little worried.
oh shit. time to go to class...i'll have to finish this later...
