Most of my friends decided to take up awful menial jobs for these few weeks, but, like, isn’t it called break for a reason? (cashiering, waitressing, substitute teaching? no thank you) Plus I don’t think my office at school has a January student budget, and I wasn’t about to go looking for something else that would pay me pennies.  So when I don’t have anything to do during the day I sleep until noon and it’s cool.  I have the trippiest dreams in the early afternoon.  I’m not lazy, I promise…

Thus far in 2007, I’ve cut my hair (only a few inches), bowled a 65, learned how to cook (not really, though I did throw together a fabulous chicken in raspberry sauce), drank a lot of coffee, played a lot of cards, and well, shopped some more.  For three days it was 60+ degrees, on one of them I went and hung out at Southford Falls with D & T:

apparently there was still ice on the water; hello banana peel

D tries to sink it with a rock … who knew that banana peels float?

“tower” means two flights of stairs and a platform on top of a hill in the woods

& the sun sets over Oxford, Conn…
