i figure i haven't done one of these in awhile
so, now i will

—i was a stunning 1–6 for bowl game predictions this season, a new personal worst; apparently only uconn felt the need to fucking win. big ten, you're killing me, so hard

—i didn't do anything interesting over break, so don't bother asking me; i spent about five days sawing and splitting wood, that's about as good as it gets

—my neighbors on the right side moved out...now there are two douche-bags living there. awesome

—i read three books over break; most i read all year, sadly

—speaking of books, i bought a whopping 21 this semester for my classes [though my total was still less than $300, cuz the interwubs is awesome like that]; if you can break that record, please let me know...if you want to offer empathy, i'd appreciate it

—i really need a fucking job, and nobody's hiring; god. damn. it.

—my dad got me a new computer chair for my dorm, and its fucking SWEET; god i love it, it causes much envy

—i'm directing a short play this spring for roial, so here's hoping i don't fuck it up, huh?

—i have really good ideas for a few short stories, but i really, really doubt they'll work out

—my russian prof called our class 'vagabonds and gypsies' today; it was pretty damn classic

—speaking of that, less than four months until i поеду в россии [i think that's right, i don't even know anymore]

and that's all i have to say about that
