And how could I forget
This will unfortunately be another brief week because of the holidays, but I'm sure we'd all rather be with our loved ones anyway.
A quick synopsis of things to catch you up:
yesterday I fell on a man in the metro train, and I mean fell hard... not just a light brushing against,
I've been promoted and given a pay raise twice in the four months I've been working at this job,
this weekend I went to a Thanksgiving potluck, and my sweet potato casserole was a big hit!,
I'm making a double batch of the casserole to take home Thursday... it's potato peeling hell for me!,
my nursing contact who works in labor and delivery nearby never got back to me,
I have created an irrational fear of the GRE for myself; when I even begin to think about it my mind completely panics and shuts down,
maybe I'll just go to culinary school,
last week I worked 7 hours of overtime,
the O2 Optix contacts I was given to test at the eye doctor last week aren't working out; maybe I just can't wear contacts while working,
this past Sunday I slept most of the day... including in the middle of the living room floor wrapped in a pile of blankets,
I am on the last season of Angel and it still isn't doing it for me,
I miss the people I used to be closer to,
I want to move to a house and get a dog,
things are all in all good but nothing goes the way I imagine it.
BONUS: Favorite things family members have said to me in the last week:
"Should I pick up some information about the law school while I'm at Notre Dame this weekend?"
- dad
"I always just figured you wore glasses because you were trying to think of a way to standout from me."
- brother
After telling my parents I got a raise
"Your company has no idea what it's doing."
- dad
It's been a surprisingly light week for mom. Way to go, team!

You know? Have you ever given thought to working in the food industry and going to culinary school?
You seem to have a geniune love and interest in it and the stuff you come up with sounds divine.
Just a thought.
P.S.
Your family can really suck a duck with the things they say. So can mine.
I don't know... I feel like the food industry is one of those things that sounds great in theory, but really it would be a tooth and nail sort of thing. But maybe that's just me being an ass to myself again.
Yes... families... I'm sure I'll have more fun things to report after Thanksgiving.
oooooooo ain't families grand
