Not to mention under-blanket "cuddling" 11:52 PM

So October came and went, and I'd like to think it was a pretty good month. I had a great time visiting family and friends, got treated to some drinking and clubbing for my 21st, and strangely enough, I'm actually looking forward to this winter. Hockey, snowball fights, Christmas, spiked coffee, a lengthy tome, crackling fires; what can I say, winter is pretty much the shiz.

If you don't see me around here much it's because I'm still trying to figure out this social networking thing. Facebook has got me, Twitter needs updates, and I think I want to spend a little more time updating my Strip blog.

But more than anything, this season is just a really busy time of year. Hopefully I'll see you when the dust settles. Until then.

You can quote me on this 11:35 PM

My family: Eccentric, lovable, unique, loyal; and as of late, sadly under-appreciated. Being here at my family's place for a visit has reinforced and reminded me of just how much I love, need, and appreciate them.

Sure, every family has it's issues. Mine is no different. But I see here people who love and care for me, who will stand by me come what may. This makes me see what our little differences and difficulties amount to when compared to our family bonds: nothing.

And while this may sound corny, I maintain that it's the truth, and as such, I believe it with all my heart: I have the best family in the world. I'm in the family that's just right for me.
