My feelings toward December

I've spent the last three or so hours trying to think of something to write. I may have done a better job had I not been distracted by the football game or my roommate's viewing of Anastasia. I can't really think of much, so I offer what little I have. I survived the ice storm, barely. I had some white knuckle moments on the interstate, even though I was going just thirty mph. I'm really enjoying Everything is Illuminated, though I can't imagine reading it without having seen the movie. I wouldn't have understood the first fifty pages or so. The ice has kept me from running this weekend, so I just stare out the windows and sigh. I was reminded of a line from a movie that I have always felt applied to me as well: "you have great ideals, but many doubts." I'm trying to overcome those doubts, but it isn't easy. Does that mean that it's good? I've mentioned that I dream a lot, so this morning I decided to start writing down my dreams; if you're lucky I'll share some with you someday. I spent a lot of time thinking about giving, football and futbol today, but mostly I thought of the friends that I miss. Must be that time of the year. One thing I am looking forward to: Wisconsin versus Tennessee, battle for the C room. I don't think I'll be able to take sides. you have my love.
