Ellen visited this weekend! It’s the first time we’ve seen her since she left in early November, so that was fun, considering we were used to seeing her every day. It was great having her here, from Thursday night until Sunday morning, because everything felt normal again. Ellen being here means I have someone to do things with instead of sitting alone in the dorm watching Netflix and doing homework for hours and hours on end and forgetting to eat. Yes, having a boyfriend has helped with that, but I think in life you need to strike a balance between boyfriend, best friends, and self. And right now it’s really just boyfriend and self for me, which all things considered isn’t super healthy. I’ve got Colton, but he’s rarely home, let alone at a reasonable time of day, because of work and classes and his boyfriend. And I’ve also got Rachel, who doesn’t even live in this state and thus cannot hang out with me. Which sucks.
Either way, I miss Ellen a metric f***ton and I can’t wait for next year, when all will be right in the world again.
It’s spring break right now, which is a massive relief. Last week was… trying, to say the least. Getting back from Belgium and immediately jumping back into everything was a bad, bad plan. I really needed this week to collect my crap. I’ve got a two page To-Do list for the week and another full season of Veronica Mars, which should keep me busy. I’ve also got a boyfriend to keep company and my dad arrives on Wednesday. This spring break won’t be as solitary as last years, nor likely as relaxing, but it should be good none-the-less. I have only the best of expectations, considering 2013 is already starting 1000000000% better than almost any other year of my life.
Random housekeeping things:
After this week my TheseFolk videos will start coming out on Wednesdays instead of Sundays because of some restructuring we’re doing with the channel. This makes my posting schedule Tues blog, Wed TheseFolk, Thurs BOW video. Whew.
Veronica Mars is a really good TV show. It is my Buffy of 2013.
My boyfriend rocks and such.
I’m going to Ogden, Utah the weekend after this one for a NATIONAL WRITING CONFERENCE THAT I TOTALLY GOT INTO.
New Cooking with Gandalf on Thursday, from Saturday night, because we couldn’t possibly let Ellen visit without filming one. I haven’t actually edited it yet, but I know it’s gonna be a good one.
My computer is at 13% battery so I should probably stop blogging and go home.
