Brrrrrr. It is downright chilly... which probably has something to do with the earth's tilt at this time of year or something! It was REALLY cold at the Chiefs game - for about, well, the wholegame, I was sure they were going to have to amputate a few toes due to frost bite. It was still fun as hell. I tried"Tim Tam Slams" at Mike's after the game. Tim Tams are these Austrailian chocolate-covered cookies. You prepare this hot chocolate stuff... Milo... and then bite two corners off of a rectangular shaped Tim Tam and then use the Tim Tam as a sort of straw to suck up the Milo. It is hard to envision but it is REALLY good. I'll let you know if I find suitable American substitutes for these products.

It's weird how much I love going home. I think I've just been away for awhile... or things really suck here in Manhattan... or something. But I haven't wanted to be back in Olathe this much since my freshman year. I think I'm really just tired of school.

I made a couple selfish "you shouldn't be buying this before Christmas" purchases today. The first was "Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup" for Gamecube. It is really fun... a sports game for those who don't really like sports games. The other, of course, was X2: X-Men United.

Jason showed me some cool music videos tonight directed by a guy whose name I can't remember (Michel something... Gondry?) ANYWAY... he's what I would call the music video version of M.C. Esher. Yes, my friends... he is that cool.

I am in the process of finishing up reading Fellowship of the Ring. I know, it hasn't been my book of the moment for a long time, but alas, it is what I have been reading. I think my book of the moment never can or will be accurate; I will ALWAYS be reading multiple books at the same time. But yeah.... I, uh, don't know where to go from here.

Oh hey... download this song: "You're Always Going Too Soon" - Matthew Jay. I heard it at work and liked it.
