This would be week number three of hitting overtime. Next week will be no different. With the eight hours I get paid on Christmas, I'll hit 54 hours. Hah.

It's really weird to look at a year summated in such a way. It makes me realize how time can feel like it passes so, so fast. I've been here for almost five months! Oh my god! Five fucking months!

Sal texted me and said he believes in New Years stigma, and I'm gonna have to agree. But this new years should be really awesome. I'm shooting for my other foot tattoo in January, sky diving in March, and Vegas in April. Over the summer, too, I wanna go to Philly to see Tiffany, take a train to Detroit, and then shoot over to Chicago before flying home. East coast tour, go! I hope my mom got me a Nintendo DS for Christmas. I wanna play Brain Age.

I'm gonna go drink my hot chocolate. Love life, bye.
