I have CDs by Rilo Kiley and DragonForce, and a new Leatherman, and Heat on DVD, and a copy of Prey which I am installing at this very moment. A successful Christmas, I think.
Last week I actually left the house and exercised my right to drive. Had lunch with Hannah and saw Casino Royale, attended the Saturnalia, played Shadow of the Colossus with Mingo. Amy was in town and we hung out and talked for about five hours, which is brief relative to the usual.
My grades for the past semester were better than expected, which put some reassuring distance between me and loss of scholarship. I'm now separated from academic peachiness only by my inability to settle upon a major. Progress!

Several days ago I embarked on a path long untraveled, that of going to bed before midnight. It was sort of an accident -- an intended evening nap turned into my night's sleep, and my rhythm reset itself. It's an interesting novelty and I can't see any immediate reason to force a reversal.
Today I played a hardboiled undercover detective in a movie filmed for an Econ presentation. Who knew that narcotics cops like to pack a Colt Peacemaker? Goofy and fun, even though I'm still not happy about a 45-minute group presentation being assigned in the last week of class.
Exams start tomorrow. I'm as ready as anyone for winter break, but good grief, that's just wrong.

Strange news tonight. I'm trying not to think about it, not before he's explained himself. But the confusion and prejudice were instant, and maybe there was a little anger, too. And then rationalizing my feelings to myself, like so: people may change but they shouldn't revert; I thought we'd reached some kind of lifelong consensus years ago; he's been tricked, coerced, anything, but I know he didn't choose freely. Those are unfair thoughts and I tried to replace them, but he went from IM to bed, wisely, as I should have done.
Nothing more to say on that, really. There's so much I've neglected to write here in the last month, which I could only summarize dispassionately at the moment.
