Happy, happy new year.

So...last night was New Years Eve...and today was New Years Day...
Hmm. Yeah...about that...
Big deal. is all I have to say.
I mean, what makes the 31 of December so different from the 31 of March or April, May, June, July, ect?
I really, truly, and honestly believe that the whole New Years thing is overrated.
Am I only bitter because my "New Years kiss" consisted of only a peck on the cheek? ...and from a female yet?
Maybe... I don't know.

When I returned from the party I stepped outta my boots, crawled into bed, poured myself a glass of sparkling apple juice, flipped open my laptop, and watched Bride Wars until my eyelids became anvils.
Yes, that is how I, Jennifer, spent my first hours of 2010.
After awaking from an almost too perfect and undisturbed sleep, I spent the next few hours on the telephone, grateful that I had someone to talk to.
I spent January 1st, 2010 scribbling through my day-planner, realizing that I only have one free day left before I take off. One free day to relax, rejuvenate, and soak up my last and only excuse to be lazy. Only one free day...wow, so much for having a petty social life. Hmm.
My Mom and I then baked rice krispy squares. (Allowing for me to stroke another item off my "Christmas To-Do list") For some reason, I was mysteriously intrigued by the texture of the initial mixing of the melted marshmallows and rice krispies. It looked like a spider had spun a million webs around each krispy grain of rice; a tangled web. And...this also proves my weirdness. Alright, moving on...

I also continued reading Twilight; a book which my sister claims should've only taken me a day to read, and yet it has been 2 weeks. I'm not a slow reader, trust me, my elementary school teachers praised me for my inclined reading abilities. I just prefer to read in front of the television, and my noisy parents...and my perpetually ringing cellphone, that's all.

I'm starting to have a lousy feeling about my "Christmas Vacation To-Do List"...I mean, if it takes me 2 weeks to read one book, I'll need 10 weeks to read my next 6 books. Sigh. In pondering this, would I secretly considered canceling ALL plans and outings for next week, just so I'd be able to read minute after minute, day after day...?
Nah, I love my friends too much.
