Friends

I don't have very many friends, but the few I have are rad. I made my world famous vegan lasagna, and am taking it and leftover potato leek soup over to Tamra's house to have dinner with her and Lance. Most of my other friends are visiting family, I assume. Regardless, it is really nice to enjoy a good, homecooked meal with good friends every once in a while. Unfortunately, because of the size of the lasagna pan, I won't be riding my bike over to her place. Luckily for Amelie, that means she gets to come also. Dog Party, and friends. I'm stoked.

The Turkey Holocaust Approaches

Every fall I dread the holiday season. I spend a lot of time coming up with excuses to avoid participating in holiday events and gatherings. If I'm lucky, I can spend Thanksgiving at home, by myself, the way I like it. I don't really have anything against the holidays, per se, but they just aren't for me. I think of many, many awkward days spent with family, and it's just not for me. Some people might think I was antisocial, but this couldn't be farther from the truth. I like social settings, so long as I feel like I have some sort of power in them.

I've got the week (the rest of it anyways) off, and I don't want to have to do anything I don't want to. I planned on riding bikes today, but I just got sidetracked with other dumb distractions until I ran out of daylight. Tomorrow I will make up for it if possible. Let's hope the weather (namely the wind) cooperates.
