Tight places

I seem to enjoy the lists of things lately. This is my list of "tight."

1) My winter jacket, the warmest article of clothing I have ever owned, which Navin has dubbed "Chewbacca" is flawed in one aspect. The sleeves are too short. Boo...

2) Bad hair day.

3) Lost my favorite earings, the ones Sam's $20 birthday gift to me ended up paying for. They'll turn up, it just bothers me that as neat as everything is in my room, I still can't find anything. Reminds me of a coffee mug we're selling at the Espresso Bar. "Organized people are just too lazy to look for things." The more I turn it over in my mind, the more it describes me.

4) Thought about stuff I shouldn't have all day today. It got pretty crowded in my head. I wish some of those guys would leave me alone. Relationships with people are too tight right now I think.

5) Both of my legs are cramped, semi permanently, or at least until Dhaval and I start a MEP. My one ankle is a little gooshy still, so I wore an ankle brace today, because I knew the shoes I'd be wearing were ankle supporting, and yet possibly were tight in the wrong places for that ankle. More tight stuff, this time ON me.

6) The Kirkpatrick Choir and the Rutgers Glee Club teamed up, as usual, for the annual Christmas Series at the Kirkpatrick Chapel. Since Anissa is in the choir, we of course squashed ourselves in with the rest of New Brunswick to hear it. This series always sells out in October-ish, so its a big deal. I literally had to push James over in order to fit my butt into the pew- my butt... the one mom is always saying is just bones. Yeah it was pretty tight. But the music was simply fabulous. I liked the Kirkpatrick choir, but I have to say, I do have a thing for deep male voices, so the all-male Glee Club singing Silent Night a cappella was pretty cool.

7) Everyone went back to our place for cookies and warm spiced apple cider and homemade caramel. Talk about tight places. Still, it was nice being cozy with friends- seeing old ones, meeting new ones, and continuing the bonds with the current ones.

8) During the cozy part of the evening, I couldn't help but let my mind drift back to number four. I'm not really a good person when I do that. I don't really like who I am when I do. Its just that when everyone is talking at once and I can't follow every conversation at once, my brain fries and I withdraw, letting my mind wander. I shouldn't do that. It mostly wanders to the wrong places.

9) K that's it. No more tight spaces- well, one more. I'm going to bed to get cozy with my teddy bears and Yuen (my purple puppy). Gnight...
