Well Christmas has come and gone. There's still no snow. The midwest got a ton of rain, and rather cold weather, but sadly no snow. I'll have to live vicariously through my friends in Colorado for a bit; one even promised to bring snow back to Houston for me. More incentive to fix (replace?) my fridge ASAP.
Karaoke was sadly cancelled this week. Several of us showed up to the pub and right around midnight (when the $$ contest begins) there were a good 60 people wondering why there was no singing. They've decided not to have it until late spring or summer! Apparently the bar was shooting for the disturbing news to send its patrons to drink further - I'm fairly sure it worked. I guess this just means there will be singing during "Thunder over Louisville" weekend.
The lack of singing aside, it has been a great trip home. There was nearly an entire day dedicated to learning how to bake new types of cookies, so I'll be bringing back a number of cookies. At the moment I'm afraid to calculate just how many I'm bringing back and how many I ate along the way. I'll settle for just saying that running will be a tad bit painful when I get back to Houston! Classes don't start until mid-January - which should give me plenty of decompression time to finish up my thesis and a couple other things that I committed to doing (book chapters anyone?). Next semester I'm taking Thesis hours, Functional Neuroanatomy, Statistics Part 2, and a developmental assessment class (developmental neuropsych, part 2). In other news: my best friend, Paul, is most likely moving to Puerto Rico in February. This of course is slightly detrimental to my hopes of him moving to Houston. But on the upside, it's yet another tropical place with good SCUBA diving to go visit.

Scuba. ugh. I hate you. Life's sometimes just not fair, y'know.
Oh, and you still haven't told us if you're coming up our way. Am I to take that as a "No, I don't want to see you two"? ;) I see how it is, more important people to see.
