Thanksgiving went well. I traveled to West Virginia with my friend Abigail to celebrate with her grandparents, aunt and uncle, and younger cousin. Her grandparents own a Bed and Breakfast and it's pretty fun. I went for a run yesterday around there area (5 or 6 miles) and it's beautiful.
I am sitting in the living room next to the a crackling fire. Her Grandpa just opened up the window and it's snowing outside! I can see a hillside with lots of reddish, skeletal trees in the background. I guess I will not be going for a run today. One thing I would like for Christmas is a set of warm gloves and hat to go running in.
Abigail is still asleep and I have spent most of the morning reading my Bible and surfing the internet. We will return to school either tomorrow morning or later tonight.
The holidays are a horrible time to be single. I am so desperate/lonely that I even find Abigail's 15 year old cousin attractive enough that I would not mind a hug or even a slight cuddle. In my defense, he is 6'5 and a very muscular swimmer and is also on the cross country team, so he could pass for 17... That's better than 15, considering I am almost 20, haha. Agh, I will be 20 in less than a month. No more being a teenager =(.
Abigail talked to her boyfriend (they are very serious and are talking about marriage and when/how it fits into their education and career plans). I went to bed 'cus there was nothing for me at it was 11pm. I cried myself to sleep while my mind wandered from Abigail and her boyfriend, to wishing I had someone, to once again, inevitably returning to my ex and wondering went wrong and why.
One thing that has kept me smiling is listening to the audiobook of Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert.
