Christmas has officially begun!

So, I got my first Christmas present today, which must mean that it's Christmas, right? Somehow I don't think that studying on Christmas is right. I should ask my professors about that one. Hmm.. In anycase, Marvin never does seem to be able to wait until Christmas to give out his gifts. He's like a little boy. No patience whatsoever:) Last year I had to convince him to wait until at least after Thanksgiving before beginning the gifting process. Kinda funny actually. In anycase, the first installment of Christmas came in the form of a oil pourer bottle thingy and some bread dipping oil. MMMM!! Of course I had to run out right away and buy some bread and make a big oily bready seasoning-y mess of myself and my kitchen. Much fun was had by me!

Of course, now I'm finding wonderful excuses to procrastinate in doing the last big blob of homework I've got for this semester. If I could just not study, and know it, that would be the best thing ever. I can't stand studying anymore. Makes me want to throw my books out the window.....and then go outside and get them and start studying again. But throwing the books would be quite theraputic. Except I've got screens on my windows, so what would really happen, would be that I would throw them at the window, they'd bounce back and hit me in the head, and then I'd pass out and wake up to realize that finals are over, and I've flunked because I've missed all of them. Hmm... at least I wouldn't have to take the tests that way...hmmm....

A lot of this is really my own fault though. If I wouldn't sit around and procrastinate by doing things like blogging, I'd probably have a lot more done by now. Or by going out for dinner and a few drinks last night with some friends. BUT I had an excuse. It was Mitch's birthday yesterday, AND one of Marvin's last opportunities to go out for a long time AND import bottle night at Blue Bricks, which is one of my favorite places in Mankato. As long as its not a Friday or Saturday night. Blues music, relaxed atmosphere, good food, what more can you ask for? If anyone wants to come to Mankato, I'll take you there.

The sun's not yellow, it's chicken.
