I've spent so much time traveling in the past two days...I drove back to Chapel Hill on Wednesday afternoon from home, basically just packed a few things in another bag, then set out on the road again for Concord to pick up Brian. That was a long trip to make by myself, the first time I've ever driven to Charlotte without having someone to talk to! Got there a little before 7 pm, Brian's mom was really nice to give me some pot roast for dinner and some apple pie, good stuff. Brian and I left and drove up to Richmond together, got there about 12:30 in the morning. I was so tired after all that driving, even though I didn't drive any from Concord to VA! But it was good to sleep in a little yesterday, had a great burger at a local place named Dot's, yum. Watched Little Miss Sunshine and the beginning of Superman Returns, will have to finish that one later. Then I drove back to Chapel Hill to get here in time for the Rutgers basketball game, for which Matt got us risers! :-D Got to hang out with Matt and Brianna afterwards, which is always awesome, and watched Over the Hedge. Now today is just chilling and hanging out with my Sarah, who is like my little sister. :-) I'm not sure how the next few days will play out...maybe hanging out again tomorrow with Brianna, maybe going home if my family does something for Dad's birthday...but for New Year's I'm going back to Richmond, most likely. It is going to be nice to have something fun to do for New Year's instead of the traditional hanging out with my parents and watching the ball drop on TV. Don't get me wrong, I love my parents, but I can only spend so much time with them before it gets a little worn out. My family tends to drive me crazy if I linger with them too long.
I read an astrological thing on the internet today, talking about resolutions that would be beneficial for each zodiac sign. Now I'm not one to be totally reliant on astrology and all that, but sometimes the things that end up in my horoscope are pretty accurate and concurrent with events going on in my life at the time, so I read them for advice or suggestions. Well, the resolutions that this article offered me was to eliminate relationships and encounters that were negative and did nothing but bring bad feelings into my life--because I need more positive energy and people in my life for the next year. I couldn't help but laugh at myself--in a sad pitying kind of way--about how accurate it was, considering everything that I've been going over and over in my head recently. In fact, it was kind of scary how accurate it was. I realize that no matter what I do, I can only put off for so long what really needs to be done. But I've decided on some resolutions for next year, which I will post here soon when I finish my list. And I will have to wait on how events unfold in the future before I can make any more decisions...we shall see what happens.
