GAH, VIOLIN IS THE BEST!!!!!!!
![]() ![]() I've stopped playing using the bow (I'm just plucking, like the book suggested), since he didn't actually "show" me how to do it and I would hate to spend all week using the bow and being all proud of myself only to show up for the lesson and have him say, "Yeah.... no.... now we have to fix EVERYTHING YOU'VE EVER DONE!!!" ![]() |

The contract is signed.
Next year I'll have a rather big tenement with a real kitchen, only a minute's walk from my job. Also, the current tenant might be willing to give me some of her furniture ![]() I'm pretty satisfied with this arrangement.

A minute. That's life quality, I tell ya!
edit: Of course with time optimism and all that, I'm surely bound to turn up late for work everyday ![]()

However, if you live so close to your work, then your colleagues can come and poke you out of bed if you oversleep.

Yay Jon! Is it also anywhere near the centre of the town or is the hospital outside the town?

The hospital is very near the town centre.
Of course, it's a quite small centre ![]() The hospital is quite small too, meaning part of my employment will take place in another hospital some 30 mins away by bus. So I won't have the luxuary of 1-minute-walks to the job every day, but oh well ![]()

I am living in a house that's 30 seconds from the place I intern at. It's super convenient. Happy - it's almost the weekend. I have Christmassy festivities, hanging out with some cool people and shopping to look forward to. And my first NFL game on Monday! |

Essentially, yes.

You guys, I met the most awesome girl tonight. My sister called me at 11 saying her car was totally broken down, so I drove out to pick her up... apparently in the meanwhile she went into the restaurant and asked for some help getting her car into the parking lot.
So this suuuuuuuper nice girl, who was just getting off of her shift, helped my sister get her car into the lot, and then used her AAA thing to call us a tow truck. Then she stuck around for about 25 minutes waiting for the tow truck to show up... seriously nicest person ever. ![]() The downside is that in about 5 hours I need to go pick up my sister to drive her in to work, so I wont get much sleep. But on the plus side I had an awesome day of singing today, made friends with a former old 'enemy', got told I was "the funniest guy ever," by a nice guy at choir ( ![]() It's always nice to meet nice people. ^_^ They're the best. |

I love my cute little dog so much! Well, he's 70 pounds, so maybe not little, but he is soooooo sweet! Everyone who meets him loves him. He's getting old, though - he'll be 10 in February

Horse. Dog. Bow & Quiver. Wide open plain and woods.
On a day off, I can't ask for anything better. Happiness is a rare blessing. What sort of dog do you have Rian? I've got two giant mongrels, and one massive pitbull.
