Whew. It’s gonna be a l-o-o-o-o-ng Winter, Kids.

I’m pretty pleased with my little Pre-Christmas weekend.

  • I managed to avoid any and all shopping centers.
  • I ate delicious Indian food with mai boy and some other lovely Gents.
  • Even in spite of the obscene amounts of baking that I did all weekend, I didn’t burn my hand, not once.
  • The party was a success, even if I think some of my friends may or may not be alcoholics.
  • And even though I spent almost all of yesterday cleaning, I still made it to the gym for a good 45-minute, 614 calorie burning workout. Woo Hoo!
  • OH! And, I got to see Fran two times! SUCCESS!

At present, I am seeking the motivation to do much of anything here at the library. It’s quiet today and I wanted to upload party pictures, but it appears that I have left my camera cord at home. Ah, c’est la vie.

Tomorrow, Duke Energy is supposed to come read my gas meter again. Because I didn’t freeze my ass off all month to pay $316. No, Sir! So, while I am hoping the reading is wrong, I am also hoping that he doesn’t show up until 3:30, so I miss out on a full day of work tomorrow, thus causing me to spend all of it wrapped up in blanket heaven and holiday movie goodness with Le Garcon.

Ciao.

It’s snowing! I will take pictures! Te prometo!

So, for those of you not hip to the Facebook will be missing out on the fact that my family is having a Grand Old Christmas Party on December 26th ( Feel free to come!!! E-mail me for details…).

It’s mainly something that us Graham Kids are doing, and in the process of making the invitation, some of us decided to submit our own Christmas Card Photo type things. I thought you might like to see them.

1. I lost! (Which is a good thing because here at the Library we’re doing the Biggest Loser) And I lost!

2. I am almost done Christmas shopping!

3. I am meeting with an advisor today in the Masters in Communication Studies at NKU!

4. I started decorating L’Apartment for Christmas! Now all we need is a tree!

Sure, I believe you when you say that it’s just in time for the Oscar voting to begin…

But…

I wonder… is there any sort of tragic milestone also happening around that time? Maybe like the day before? Hmmm….

Ugh. Sickening.

So, the biggest bug that’s been zooming around my head recently has been the one that says “Go to Grad School.” “Study for the GRE.” “Get off Yo’ Bottom!”
And it’s true. I really do need to continue my education to a different level. I love learning, I love school and I miss them both greatly. And with that comes the decision making of what kind of school exactly do I wish to enroll in. While Anthropology is my love, what I truly want to do with it is more related to Journalism rather than being a full blown Margaret Mead (Oh, how I’d love it!). But I think what I’d love, even more, is getting involved in Children’s Television Programming. Think PBS or even the Travel Channel and I could produce Travel Documentaries geared towards kids of families. Oh, dream jobs.

To me, this sounds wholly communications/journalism driven as far as a master’s goes, so today I have taken my first step in requesting a meeting with an advisor and professor at NKU to discuss their MA in Communications program.

Stellar.

Oh, what a night.

Friday was filled with Panera and the Best Damn Kroger You Ever Saw.

Silena came, too! So she got to meet Miss Fran for some delicious Paneraing. I L-O-V-E Panera.

And, unfortunately, Miss Fran could not join us for Kroger, so Silena and I trekked down to Walton, I ran over an already dead racooon and we ventured into Kroger. Sadly, I forgot my camera, so I have no pictures, but trust me when I say that this location was phenomenally large and phenomenally awesome. And, we’re getting one in Newport! Northern Kentuckians, go. It’s worth the trek to Walton, promise.

Sadly, distance, a poor economy and an even poorer amount of spare time, has rendered me Fran-less for the last, oh, who knows how long.

For those that aren’t familiar with Fran LaVilla, she’s not only the Queen Blogger of Being Fran(k), but she’s perhaps the kindest and sweetest soul this world has ever known. And she’s always good for a unique and fantastic Girls’ Night. My only regret is that our dear friend and Fellow Ex-Barista, Anna, has left us for the great state of Florida leaving our musketeering down to two. Fear not, readers. We do press on.

Now, while many of you may be battling bloodsuckers and teen lusters alike to see Twilight tonight, Fran and I have opted for a more practical date. That’s right, Kids. After a filling and somewhat healthier dinner at Panera Bread, we’re off to Walton, Kentucky to witness first-hand the dawn of a new era in food shopping: The Kroger Marketplace.

What does that even mean, you ask? Well, you will be glad to know that I asked the same question and went to the Kroger Website that didn’t even have a listing for the establishment. It’s okay, Kroger. You’re not the only ones that don’t know that Walton, Kentucky is a real place. But, from what I’ve heard and from what the advertisements I’ve gotten in the mail detail, is that this place is kind of a variety hour of grocery stores with everything from a jewelery store to a Starbucks. Oh, Joy. More Starbucks. But I recognize the need for the kind people of South Of Florence, Kentucky to have such amenities.

So, I’m ready to go. I don’t have too much of a game plan, except I’ve brought my walking shoes and have fresh batteries in my camera. Let’s go Krogering!

Look! I can do a post about baby animals just like you!

(After the jump, kids.)
