Cedar Falls

Sunday, January 3, 2010

I started taking down the Chirstmas decorations.  Wrapping up the ordaments, taking off the raffia and dried cranberries.  Then came the tree and lights.  I stopped.  I don't know if it's the whole mess of it, or the part where there will be a blank spot on my wall.  I couldn't do it. 

Add that to the fact that the house is starting to fill up with people again.

Now, don't get me wrong, I do like my roommates.  Even though we all get a long, have no major girl trauma (no cheese theivery stories here), six single girls is a lot under one roof.  I liked the quiet movements of three or four.  Add one more to the bunch and I feel the need to hide in my room with a book.  Then again, the library keeps me well stocked in interesting books to read so I do that even when I'm by myself.  With the radio turned up to Showtunes so I can sing along when I go to refresh my cup of cider/cocoa.

Christmas is over, sadly enough, and New Years too.  Yea for that.  Let's face it, unless you go crash a party or head out of town with a hot guy on your arm, it can be kinda a let down.  It is, after all, just another midnight.  Only this time you have to remember to change the date on your checks.  :)  Now we all get to make those goals that we know we'll keep and one's we'll break in three days.  Like, eat dinner everynight versus start eating healthy. 

Ha ha, you laugh about me eating dinner, but it's a good goal.  Christmas parties are over, and I no longer get feed dinner at night.  Unless some great guy asks me on a date.  So I now have to plan, exicute and consume my own evening meals.  Tragic!  On second thought, I get to make bok choy, braised celery, and find a fun way to use up all those frozen peaches in the fridge so I can go buy Totino's pizza's for my lazy no cooking days.  Ah, yes, the eating habits of a single person can be so enlightening.
