Well, considering the time of year, it’s pretty easy for me to decide what to rant about. My friends have all heard it, but obviously I haven’t told ENOUGH people, because I am still ticked. :)
Between the cabin fever, the fact that (to me) it is colder than a well-digger’s euphemism in Idiom-ville, my innate restlessness (wanderlust is not EVEN the word for it*.), the fact that I am terribly “homesick” (I am REALLY missing my aunts, siblings and cousins…), and the feeling that the mountains are closing in on me while I sleep, well, I don’t know… it seems like it’s only a matter of time before I snap. I only hope that my friends manage to kill me before I get all those bags of lime unloaded from the bed of my truck.
Does one HAVE to witness a crime to be accepted into the Witness Protection Program?
Oh bloody heck. It is threatening to snow now… >:[
“Aaalways look on the bright side of life…”

I did something really good for myself (as well as my poor beleaguered contingency of local friends) last weekend. I went to Asheville and spent my days off just playing. Hallelujah! Girls and wine and pubbing, good movies, good talk… and new faces, new streets, new shops, new conversation, new buildings, new places to eat, new activities (the Improv Workshop was a BLAST!)… and best of all, Wendi has a SHOWER! For those of you who have never crouched down in the bottom of the shower and let hot water beat on your back until you feel better – ahhhh, this is good therapy! I don’t have a shower, just my big happy tub, which I do love, but nothing beats a good squall in the bottom of the shower.
I have similar plans this weekend, too. Auditions Sunday, and then I hope to hang out with Jen and D. again (Jen and I went to Goodwill and wandered downtown on Monday**. She’s a great shopping/lunch kinda’ buddy. This room mate thing might actually work!), and I think Buffy and I have some plans to play on this Monday.
Life is beautiful…
If only these MOUNTAINS would quit closing in…


*I’m actually wondering if the whole PLANET isn’t too small for me…
**She also introduced me to another freaky sexy librarian! Hey, Lisa! ;)
