Ode to a Box

I didn't really talk about my birthday celebration from a few weeks ago because it's kind of a hard thing to explain. There were all the necessary thing: friends, music, alcohol. There was much more though, I had people come from out of state and from next door and it was just a lot of fun. You never realize how much you depended on people and how much you miss them until they're back, even if it is just for a night.

In my desire to avoid studying for finals (1 down and 2 to go... then: MEXICO)... I made a montage with a photo of Katy, the box and me from my birthday (on the left) with a couple photos from our box escapade in Syracuse last April. Miss the 'Cuse, miss her, good times...

I need to get out and visit people more. I visited John and Micah in Scranton last month and that was so much fun, even though it left me with a man voice. I need to go places! I'm hoping to make it to NYC this summer to see people, especially Willa and Sovy. I might even make that trip to coincide with Thomas' visit -- if he goes. We definitely need to see each other... I need to convince him to give up on the whole "living in Texas" thing. Also, Jenny has been making rumblings about coming here and I hope that happens, it's been too long.

It's been almost 1 year since I graduated college and I'm 2 finals away from being done with the hardest year of my life: the first year of law school. Crazy.

Seems like everything is falling into place, let's see if I can keep holding onto the pieces for just a bit longer.

Grrr

There is nothing more frustrating to me than being so tired you cannot function, and yet not able to sleep.

I don't have insomnia... I just have a screwed up sleep schedule where I'm sleeping too late in the morning and wearing myself out and yet, my body isn't ready to shut down again.

I hate being up at 3 am
