6-8 inches.
8-10 inches.
12 inches.
Snowballing.
These are just some of the things that you will hear in New 
England come the end of December unless you are incredibly surprised like we were in November. I am not talking about hearing them in gay chat rooms or the Eagle either. The Northeast seems to have bunkered down expecting two snow storms to hit us hard. Once again, hard isn't a good thing. It means that a shit load of has fallen already and more is coming. (though it actually isn't that big of a deal, it's not that much, yet) I just wished it was a day earlier because a white Christmas would have been a little more romantic then the one I had. No boyfriend. No white stuff outside. Aww. Overall, my trip home was actually fun. The family visits were short and sweet yet entertaining. I totally fell in love with one of my cousins, not that I don't love them all, but he is particularly adorable. To the point that I want one before 40. (which is a 180 degree turn from where I was a few months ago)
I am also really starting to believe in the idea of how "everything changes in life," the Buddhist philosophy. Why Catholicism does not teach you that, I have no idea. It certainly holds true though and when you start to really invest in looking at this philosophy, life seems to be normal and sane, even when it isn't. I started to realize this Christmas when I went home and started to feel more like an adult to my family rather than a child. The middle twenty-something year old maturing/transition seems to be well in progress. It is a weird feeling though. Yet it makes the rest of my life feel calm and collected. Like me having no fancy smancy job after college, or wild drama with friends (last New Years idea), and being left behind by Donna.
It is all supposed to teach you a lesson. Every bumpy ride up and down. Every change. The one thing that remains the same is love. (supposedly). Hmph, enough of me preaching.
Aww.. well you know it could of been worse. Just count your blessings... get some goodies for the Holidays?
