into the wild

so i've been having a busy break! i wasn't expecting to, actually. i thought i would be sitting on the couch watching mtv true life marathons all day every day, but not so. ok, maybe i've seen a FEW marathons, but not as many as i thought :)

went up to nashville on tuesday to hang with erin and scott and planned on coming back thursday, but i was having so much fun i stayed till friday! ate a p.m. a couple of times, went to trivia night at sam's, played a little zelda (shout out to scott:the only person who understands the zelda obesession), and had a few leisurely lunches with sis up in her lawyerly office. it was a great trip, full of a few new developments that are kind of fun :) i'm still mad at vandy for beating auburn, but i have to say i love nashville!

for the past few days i've been playing with old friends here in huntsville. going to crossroads (one of the two bars here in huntsvegas) made me remember how dumb high school was, wish i'd known it was so dumb at the time ;) the "bouncer" didn't believe that i was using my real ID to get in. i guess the new darkened hair is what was throwing him off. it was actually pretty funny because i wasn't even trying to get in as over 21, but he came pretty close to taking away my actual driver's license...bet that's something you've never heard before. anyway, everyone i went to HS with was there. it was cool for about 5 minutes.

as for the title of this post, "into the wild" is a movie i watched in nashville. it's nothing short of amazing. recommended to anyone who has ever had the urge to leave society behind; don't fight it, you know you've thought about it before! just watch and you'll see.

MERRY CHRISTMAS! the Lord is come! rejoice, rejoice! went to church this morning with the fam, wonderful service. wonderful God! going to church here in huntsville reminds me of some great childhood memories. praise Jesus, i love celebrating His birthday! does it seem like Christmas is really sneaking up this year? maybe it's just me. i'm excited, but i want the season to last, i'll be sad when it's over. who's with me for celebrating Christmas till feb.? ;)
