Behind
I mean it. In every possible way. I’m behind on my journal-posting. I’m behind in my classes. I’m behind in my social life, even. I don’t understand how December can be such a crummy month in the sense that everything comes together. Oh wait. I do understand. Callbacks, dinners, and parties. Life caught up with me.
So what do I do? Well clearly the answer is not that I studied this past weekend. McKenzie came up to visit this weekend. Well, she really just came up for the NC State game. I was an added benefit. Or a necessary evil. Depends on perspective, I suppose. In any event, Saturday we stayed in and watched Georgetown blow it on Duke. I also learned how to play this Settlers game that Seth seems to always be talking about. Hmm, i still have a city of his. Perhaps I should consider returning it. Meh. In good time, my dear friend.
Sunday we went to the NC State basketball game. That was fun, and now there are pictures up in the photo gallery. That was our first ACC-opener victory in twelve years! TWELVE! Holy crikey!
In related news, I needed to post this before it was tainted. That’s right. Virginia is sitting at the top of the ACC. This, too, has not happened in a long time. So, this is good. I, as usual, am excited about the team and think that we’ve got a good season ahead of us (knock on wood). The only problem is that if Sean and/or JR have off-nights, the entire team suffers, as I’m not sure the others step it up in time to pull off the W. But we shall remain optimistic.
Man, there’s so much to talk about I don’t even know where to go from here. Monday and Tuesday were spent in the books. Luckily for me, I only have three exams - one of which is Leslie’s casefile. Studywise, this means I only have two exams. This is glorious. So what did I do with all this extra time today? I ended up going to Walmart (yes, I shop there, and I’m proud of it. They have good deals, what can I say? Little Johnny needs money for bread anyway) and buying a ton of games, food, candy, etc. for my small-section 1Ls. It was good to just not think about exams for a while.
Wednesday night I went to dinner with Professor Moran at her place - the dillard dinner. It was a delightful dinner (hey, they had rice). Afterwards, I went to Ericka’s for holiday festivities. it was certainly good times.
Tomorrow / Today though. I go to the CIRCUS! Because I am pretty sure this will help me catch up from being behind. Crap. But…my seats are in Row 3, I believe. AWESOME.

Just wanted to point out that, of 33 pictures, exactly ONE of them is of the game actually being played. Apparently you go to games for the fireworks, the cheerleaders, and in the hope that you will be acosted by CavMan. I am SO gonna tell Sean that you don’t love him anymore.
