I am making a baby blanket. it's for a friend that had a baby two weeks ago. Usually in church circles, when some one has a baby, ends up in the hospital, has a family member die...ETC.. others try to band up around them and help them out... usually in the form of making dinners for a couple of weeks. it's practical if you think about it. if you've just gone through a life changing event, the last thing you want to do is figure out what to eat or even grocery shop. I recently found out that no one did this for my friend. I assumed that they, being the assistant pastors of our church would be taken care of. As I emerged from my cocoon of last semester, I inquired about a sign up list to be added to, only to find none... I am going to see what I can do to rectify this. I've already called and am taking her dinner tomarrow night... hence baby blanket making tonight.

New years has to be the most anticlamatic holiday. There is all this planning, pondering, celebration and anticipation to what? We whatch a stupid ball drop and then it's over. Yippee Skippee there is a new day. It's a new year. We are grasping our future! This isn't the future! Where are the flying cars? We don't even have weather control!

So I have started about twelve different journal entries in the last two days. I stop myself and delete them becase I reread what I written and I find it trivial and stupid. Not that I think my life is boring. There's alot going on in my life. I just got married. I had a honeymoon in Italy. I just finished a semster of school that kicked my butt. There is stuff to talk about. I guess I just feel trivial and noninteresting.
I went to Tahoe for Christmas. I hate Tahoe. I love the people I get to see when I am there. So it was defiantly a love-hate trip. Christmas was nice. I got an amazing necklace from my husband. My mom is getting better at buying me clothing, and I was a good wife and bought cool Game boy accessories for my man. He was mostly happy because I finally gave him his gameboy back... I have to get myself one... Kim Possible 3 is out!
I also got to hang out with three of my closest friends. That is what made this christmas really fun. I was a bit worried because I have been around the old crews when new spouses were added into the mix. Not always a good resault. My Love fit right in. This was a huge sigh of relief. I like that the good parts of my past fit well with my future.
Anyway, it just made me sad to go home. I am not a huge fan of Southern California. San Diego is an annoying place to live. School is what keeps me here. And though I have tried, I just haven't made friends here that I can at odd hours or go play games with. Spending a few days with the friends I can, makes me feel lonely.
I blew up at Dave in the shopping mall yesterday because he wasn't happy about following me around the store as I made exchanges. I explained to him that he was my only friend I had here to go places with. He reminded me that it wasn't always a good idea to Take husbands shopping. So I left my shopping and we went home.
