Revenge of the Holidays

Yes, the holidays are here. A couple of things confirmed that. First was the Elvis' Christmas CD playing in my car, secondly the snow, thirdly the ridiculous line inside Kohls, and fourthly, the camaraderie of good friends. I worked today. I worked with Shane, and that was enjoyable. I forgot how well we get along. It makes work go by so much easier when you have fun. I don't know, I've been finding work a lot more fun this year. Maybe it's Shane, maybe I'm finally competent enough to do stuff, I don't know. But, that went fairly well. Except I kept having to apologize to people for the mistakes of other, newer, employees. That was not fun, but it will be nice to have some cash to buy gifts with. Tonight I went swing dancing at the caves. It was a lot of fun. It felt so good to dance again. I was so bad, I couldn't remember anything, but I had fun. A lot of my very good friends were there which made it even better. It's so much better to dance with friends. I met this girl named Brie (as in the cheese) from Gustavus who was very nice. I definitely would not mind communicating with her again. I keep thinking about England. I had a conversation with some friends of mine in the car returning from St. Paul. There are definitely some other programs out there that interest me, specifically in Japan. I don't know. Am I ready for a whole year away from home, my music, my friends, my country? It is such an amazing opportunity, but yet, is it the opportunity for me? I guess that is the question. Anyways, it snowed today, and it rocks. It's cold, and it rocks. Being home is so great. Not that I don't enjoy Luther, it's just nice to be home. Can't wait for Christmas break. Speaking of Christmas, everyone either watch or listen to the Christmas at Luther concert coming up next weekend. I'm playing in the brass fanfare.
