'Tis the season...

So, starting tomorrow the "silly season" has officially begun. For those who are unawares, i consider the silly season to be that timeframe from Thanksgiving day through St. Valentine's day.

I have to admit i'm not sure how i feel about that. You see, i've always been kind of a Scrooge anyway... and really have only start enjoying the holiday season a couple of years ago.

But things are going to be very different this year.

It doesn't help that i'm normally down this time of year either. I hate being cold, i don't particularly care for winter (but i do LOVE the snow, figure that one out!), and i while i've always thought the holidays were nice, the over-commercialization of them really leaves me cold.

And i hate being cold.

Oddly, during the before time, the period of time within the silly season is when our relationship always thrived the most.

This year, i prefer to think of it as a time of transition. The growth is about to stop for the season (hopefully that will apply to my belly too!), and i'm about to enter a state where i intend to figure out what the next big steps are going to be in my life.

Granted, i've done a lot of that over the past several months... and i really am working on acting vs. thinking about acting.

Really!

The semester ends in three weeks, and following that will be the first real break i've had from school since the before time.

I'll finally have time to get my house in order. Finally have time to devote to meeting new people, taking music and dance lessons... and starting a new career path.

It really is very exciting.

And i'm getting really, really annoying with my use of the word "really" today. Oh well, hardly anyone reads this yet anyway... and if/when people finally do, well, they can criticize me for my writing.

Until then... who cares! =^)

Anyway, this year i'm actually looking forward to this time of year. Very exciting things are already happening in my life... and there's so much more to come.

I don't know if meeting that special someone is just around the corner or not. Hell, i don't know if i've already met her... i guess we'll just have to wait and see.
