you'll be with me next time
Oct. 2nd, 2003 04:00 pmI guess I should update, huh? I've been typing so much today, I'm about to get carpal tunnel syndrome. Ouch.
Do you guys have corn mazes in your towns? There's a big one at the Agricenter and I want to go to it. My brother went last week and had a blast. Maybe I can get a group together this weekend.
Our living room TV is slowly dying. Kathy's had it since our freshman year, and the picture is getting steadily worse. I had mentioned to Evan that we needed a new one but didn't want to spend the money. Last night he showed up at the apartment with another TV! It was one that he'd had in storage from his old apartment, and he brought it all the way over to surprise me. :) He's the most thoughtful boyfriend in the world. Unfortunately, it wasn't much better than our current TV, and it's too big for the entertainment center. So he took it back. But I was so touched that he would think of that. :)
Last night as I was listening to Room for Squares I realized that I live my life defensively, not offensively. It seems like my life mainly consists of stuff happening to me and me reacting to it. I don't really go out and make my life. Does that make sense? I mean, I've done lots of fun and good things this year, but I don't feel like I've grown much. I haven't been Pondering or making Life-Altering Decisions or Seizing the Day. I haven't changed careers or moved to an unfamiliar place. Maybe I'm not in that season of life anymore. Lately I feel more settled. Is that necessarily bad? It's something to think about, anyway.
