Bus Driving Santa

All hail to Route #156. I think it was the first substantial snow today that made Santa board the bus and drive the commuters to the Loop today.

Speaking of first snow, everybody got a little nuts in their driving today. Lots of accidents and such. One dude even drove into the windows of a hot dog shop in the Loop today. Crazy bitches...slow your ass down.

No need for the plows today and they don't shovel sidewalks here. People just walk and pack it down and create ice...yesssssss...I cant WAIT to go sliding on my ass or slip as I disembark the bus.

In other news, the lights are up and the tree is trimmed in the foyer of my building. Its quite lovely and festive. I don't have the space for holiday stuff in my little room so I'll go without for now. When Rumba and I get a house...oh its on...there will be lights and garland and flowers and candy all over the place.

All major assignments have been finished and handed in. Woo hoo. I had my final interview for my interviewing class yesterday and I have five final exams next week. Overall, its a lot of work but I'm not sweating it yet. I can only take one exam at a time so thats my study approach as well. I can't believe my first semester of grad school is over.

My aunt is due to have her baby sometime in the next few hours or day. Here's hoping everything goes alright and Baby Kennedy's condition isn't as bad as intially suggested by the doctors.

Now that I've returned to the States I am in a funk. This always happens after Rumba and I have spent some time together and then have to be seperated again. Thank god its only 3 weeks this time. This time is the hangover of a long distance relationship. One goes nuts and binges on love and affection and good times...and then its a sudden cutoff and the lethargy, headaches and heartache lingers for a few days until the system gets back on track.

Ah Chicago, how noisy and huge you are. May my time in the country come sooner than it seems now. NoDak I'm coming home.
