Hello All,
Merry Christmas!
Sorry, I am in the Christmas spirit today since we had some flurries yesterday, we set our tree up last night, and then we watched a Christmas Carol with some friends. Oh, and it could also be that I am in the spirit because I am ready for another break from school. The Thanksgiving break was just an appetizer. I really don't know what I will do when I am out in the real world again where you only get the holiday itself off.
Today I plan to get some serious studying done. That and work on the backdrop Nola and I are making for her school play, help a friend get a Christmas tree, buy some fish for our new aquarium, avoid helping Nola clean out the closet (which I am effectively accomplishing even now), and watch some more Christmas movies. I will let you determine the order of importance. Needless to say, since tests are still just a rumbling on the distant horizon this may not be as serious a study day as it should be.
I signed up for a new ISP called FreeLane. It is a free service with 56K access. If anyone is interested in free internet service I would recommend it. The commercial bar is slightly annoying, but on a student's budget more than tolerable.
My surgical wounds are healing up and I should be good as new by the time Christmas break comes around.
Happy Holidays, Brent Reading
