Taking this time to Blog.

Yeah, Thanksgiving break was nice! I got home on Wednesday and my whole family was home that was a cool suprise! My mom and I saw the movie Rent that afternoon. I liked it a lot, I love the music from the musical!

Thursday morning we left for St. Louis to have Thanksgiving at my aunt's house (my mom's sister) and to see my grandparents. The food and wine was good, it was nice to see people, but I got to sit at the "kids table" once again behind the adult table with my brother and 9 year old cousin. The rest of the people pretty much had their backs to us, I guess some things never change, but I didn't appreciate it that! My grandparents are doing fine considering everything going on. . .my grandpa with dimensia and can't hear and doesn't talk a lot to my grandma who is very lonely and will just about talk to anyone just about anywhere about anything. That is a little worriesome in itself if you can imagine. My grandpa got sick the last night, starting throwing up a little bit and stuff thought we were going to have to take him to the hospital. I think he is okay, but now every little thing is enhanced by everything else going on right now. So, we left Saturday morning.

My friend who goes to school in Dallas and called me Friday to tell me the sad news that the movie Pride and Prejudice is not playing in Springfield! Whats up with that? We were planning on seeing it together. Then on the way back she called me and was like I don't think I can do much today because I am going back home for dinner tonight in her town which is about an hour from Springfield. We decided to meet for lunch and she called me like three times and was like meet me at this Chinese restaurant. I did, she waited for me to get there before she ate. Then I went shopping with her to the mall for like three hours. That was kind of fun, she bought a lot but I am not so sure how I felt being her personal servant the whole time. No we are friends ~ but no I was the guy that waited outside of the dressing room for her and got her different sizes and stuff and then carried all the bags. She invited me to dinner at her family's house though, so I was obliged to go. It was a good meal. . . then I stayed and watched The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galalaxy with her and her brother in high school and two of his friends. I was suprised by how entertained I was by that movie. It was a good day of all of that and of course good conversation!

Then I went to a friend's house from high school after that because she was having people over that I haven't seen in a long time. People were calling me the whole time before saying like, "where are you?" i got there about 10:30 and there were like four people there, how pathetic. I did see one person I haven't seen in a while and that was really cool because we were like best friends in elementary school.

I am almost done with Sense and Sensibility and have to say I have found the whole expereince quit enjoyable. I bought Pride and Prejudice this weekend at Barnes and Noble for about $5 to read next, hehe. Haven't knitted since before break and am not sure when I'll get back to it since I have so much stuff to do for school!
