On the loose

A poem.

Ahem.

My alarm clock is a lion
Prowling on thickly padded feet
Lurking on the edge of my
Soft contented dreams
Until, ferociously attacking, he
Growls right in my ear

Holiday joy

Boy do I love the Holiday season. From now and into the beginning of January things just seem better. Christmas Blend at Starbucks, school breaks, poinsettas, satsumas, pinochle, Christmas trees, lights, pumpkin pie and chatter over late dinners. Bring it on!

I'm registering for next quarter's classes: Math 99 (don't laugh at my ignorance, it's been years!), Humanities 107 and Business Administration 101. Exciting!

I've been so busy these last few weeks. Just trying to juggle it all- homework, classes and work. I figured out why I've been so tired: I sit for 14.5 hours in a classroom, work 25-32 hours and attempt to keep up with homework and tests with about 10-16 hours of homework each and every week. But not this week! I'm going to sleep in tomorrow for the first time in a while! Yeeehaw!

Last week, I was in Aberdeen. Dad and I had a gig at a Martini Party. Wow can Dad play! He's just so good! He did some singing too and we sang together...I loved it! Other highlights included Jia Tai, Warren and I dancing our feet off in the kitchen- mom, dad and Claire even joined in!- and seeing my little former neighbor Jesse. I also got to see some wonderful friends from CLF on Sunday. That made me happy.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
