Friends

Saw lots of friends today:

  • Still got to hang out with Heather and friends. Dad made a bunch of us breakfast. And we got a lot of snow on the west side (Allegan) of the state.
  • Had dinner with Judy in East Lansing. Got ice creme and did a little Christmas shopping too.
  • Barb &Karl were in town (from Indiana) and got a bunch of us together. Saw some people I had seen before and met a few new ones.
  • And I got to stop by the Apple Store today too!
  • Got to talk to some friends on the phone as I was driving around the state…
    All and all, a great day.

  • Christmas lights

    So I’ve got my tree up with the lights turned on, the fireplace is going and I really enjoy just relaxing with them on (and the other lights off). I don’t even have any bulbs on the tree but I find it all oddly comforting… Besides television (and computers), fire and decorative lighting are some of the few things that people do while staring directly into a light source (think about it). I’m not sure why it’s so enjoyable, but it is! Just think of deer and headlights.

    The backlight of the laptop I’m using is distracting (yet somehow appealing), so I think I’m going to wrap this up and watch the lights.
