home(MA).

for anyone who was nervously biting their nails (you know all three of you who read this...), i did make it through the horror states to get back to MA. good times. it took me a small millenium to get my xmas/break acquistions into my apt, which was a little painful because it was freeze-your-ass-off cold out last night. i need to go to the store to get some carpet cleaner because my complex uses a mixture of salt and dirt and it mixes with snow to make (gasp!) mud, which was tracked into my apt when i brought my stuff in. i'm trying to keep myself really busy so i've managed to put away all my xmas decorations and organize my apt with all my new belongings. i need to run to the grocery store because i have nothing in my house. i may also head to an animal shelter later to see about getting a small furry thing.

so that's the agenda. i already miss my family. it's amazing how strong you are when you're surrounded with people who love you regardless.
