Gobble gobble.

Turkey Day 2010 has come and gone. I love the holidays in general, but I had an especially awesome 5 days this time around. My brother and his fiance came over to my parents and we all ate delicious food. Yum! Then on Friday I had a movie date with my mom and we watched Toy Story 3 and Christmas with the Kranks. CwtK is an old reliable. We break out that puppy every year. Because it's awesome. And we threw in Toy Story 3 just for good measure. Although, I have to say, that movie is the saddest thing ever. They expect children to enjoy it? I was bawling like a baby. Something about growing up and leaving your beloved toy friends is just too much for my brain. Good grief.

Saturday I finished up LOST season 6 with my pops. We had watched 14 episodes in one day earlier this fall, and we needed to finish up. Then yesterday my mom and I traveled to see one of her friends direct some good old-fashioned community theatre. Then I watched Jewel Staite in a Hallmark holiday movie. Some Christmas ham is a-okay in my book.

See why I had such a good break? Note also the non-existent mention of grad school. Or homework. Cue the hallelujah chorus.

I'm pretty much on the downhill slope from here on out. I have 3 finals and a stats research project standing between me and my first completed semester of grad school. Boy, oh boy.

So that's what's been going on. Oh, and I caught up on all my television I missed. Whew. That was stressing me out more than anything combined.

And that's how Sue C's it.

This is the story of 8 strangers.

Not my most fabulous week. I've felt more than a little overwhelmed this week by all the tasks I have coming up. So much to read, so much to study. It never ends. And a Sunday where all I want to do is sleep is NOT conducive to me accomplishing any of those said tasks. I took about 3 naps today. Seriously. Three naps. Who does that? Probably someone whose brain has pretty much reached capacity I suppose. Or someone who had a little too much Patron last night.

I did enjoy the season finale of the Real World New Orleans. This is the first season I've ever watched, but man, I loved it. For some reason, I took a serious liking to those people. Well, save a few, but that's to be expected. Lucky for me, I can still follow all of them on Twitter.

Speaking of TV, all my fall shows are coming back this week. I took a few minutes out of my day last week to confirm the start dates and times of all of the winners I have decided to keep up on this season. Glee, The Office, Desperate Housewives. Anything else is icing on top of the cake.

And...I should probably go study. I need to get that printed on a t-shirt.
