'Tis

Yes, in Newport room 301A the holiday season has officially begun as of today Sunday November 19 in 2006 the year of our Lord. So after awkward interactions including someone asking me about my hugs and accidentally sending a girl I don't know a myspace invitation... long awkward ridiculous story. Anyway after all that I was glad to go to Rock Harbor, after a long absence, with Carrie, which was amazing. And then when I returned to the room the traditional holiday activities began.

Jenna started the Christmas music, I heated our spiced apple cider and molasses chews, I put on my pjs and wrapped myself in my red flannel blanket, and then the main event to christen the season.... Little Women.







This movie is sacred to us. It can't be explained. You must experience it in the correct context to understand its significance. But I must say I will be watching it a second time when I'm home, because as much as we tried to set the mood, it's not the same in a dorm room on a dry night after a really hot day. Nevertheless I am ready for the holidays.

And then I got a great e-card from Carrie. It was funny and ridiculous and I laughed loudly. Pretty much she's amazing and I love her.
