Thankful.

Thanksgiving was lovely.  I spent all weekend with my family, and it was really nice.  Not sure if anyone remembers my Family post, but I read that to my family at dinner.  Everyone teared up or cried a little, myself included.  It was pretty cool to be able to put my feelings out there in a way I don’t usually get to.  I was actually really nervous to read it to them for some reason, but I’m glad I did.  I never want to be in a position where I think back at all the things I should have said.  I only wish my brother could have been there.

School is winding down.  I finally see the end of the semester.  I’m all registered for next semester, although that was an ordeal in itself.  I got it all worked out, though, and one of my classes that had initially filled up had an open spot, so I’m relieved.

A couple of weekends ago, I went on a trip with my friend from work, his fiancee, and my roommate, along with six other people.  We all drove down during the day on Friday, went out Friday night, tailgated all day and saw a college football game on Saturday, and went out Saturday night.  On Sunday, we all drove back to our respective homes (a lot of us were from different surrounding cities).  It was a really fun time, and I ended up hitting it off with one of the guys on the trip.  We’ve been talking since, and he seems really  nice.  I don’t know if anything will come of it, and I’m not too concerned.  He lives 4 hours away, which sucks.  It’s a place I like to visit, though, so who knows.  Like I said, I’m just getting to know him for now, and we’ll see what happens.

God, I really can’t believe 2014 is almost over.  Time is speeding by.  I figure I should start thinking of some resolutions for the new year.  Hmm…
