top ten reasons i hate winter

note: i dont totally hate winter. there are some good things. but these are the bad ones.

10. it's cold. its just really really cold and it's not comfortable.
9. with the cold, i lose circulation in my digits a lot. they turn yellow. it's scary.
8. it's a pain to go running. literally. it hurts to breathe in that cold air.
7. there's not much sun. i like the sun. i miss it.
6. dry skin.
5. my lips get chapped. and i just ran out of my strawberry chapstick from jamba juice.
4. limited wardrobe. i only have so many sweaters, and i like to keep warm so i don't wear much else.
3. the slush/salt combination that seeps up into my pants and shoes and makes them freezy cold-wet plus dirty
2. static. i get sooo staticky in the winter... i sometimes wonder whether i could die of static electrocution.
1. zimmers.

who would try to do away with snow days? that's silly.

anyway, only four more days (or 28 more classes) until, as Rachel called it, "a two-week weekend!" and that will rock. xmas presents are getting there. i wrapped mom and dad's today. i just have to buy a few more things. and then there are those people who i sorta, well... forgot. and dont have enough money to "remember". its real real bad.

the ymca thing went really well. cute kids. nice folks. they were so grateful... it was rather humbling. xmas party after was fun, too. i mostly sat on the kitchen counter and watched and listened while Alle and Alex (!) played/jammed. seth hung out with us in there too... he kept setting the oven timer and insisted on talking about rush and cream alll the time. he was so fixated, it was funny. i like seth--he's a good guy.

lotr wednesday. that's in two days. i dont know whether i'm gonna be able to go the first day!!! i bet its already sold out most places plus i dont know who to go with... i kinda want to go see it with my dad because that's tradition and all, but i also told alle i'd see it with her, and shannon and the kids were going to go see it too... whew. i'm honestly a little sad that it's almost out and that i will see it because then it will be over! no more lord of the rings! that's so sad... they're such good movies. i still haven't finished watching the extended two towers.

on an unrelated note:
i can't take it anymore. i'm going completely out of my mind with anger and frustration. this isn't fair, and it isn't the way things are supposed to be but it's the way they are and that frustrates me even more. being all passive-agressive i want to lash out so bad. there are a million things i could say, a million ways to make you see how i feel, and burn it into your mind so you'll never forget and you will feel the pain that i feel... but i can't. whether its just common decency or something more i just can't. and even while i am hurt and angry... i have softer feelings too. and i am full of an anxiety... time is running out. i dont know what to do. i don't know how to feel. i dont know what's going to happen. i wish i could express myself more clearly but i can't.... i think. i'm dreadfully confused.
