Thanksgiving with the fam!

I decided to surprise my family for Thanksgiving, and I'm so very glad I did! I haven't been home for Thanksgiving in three years. Last year I went to my best friend's house for Thanksgiving, and the year before I visited with my sister at her school. But this year, one of my friends at school, whom I have known since before college days, has a car now and we decided to roadtrip all the way from Indiana back to Connecticut for break. Of course.... hehe, I decided to do so without telling my family. I've been looking forward to this since the spring, when I started planning! It was such a long trip, even though we broke it up into two days. (we left Tuesday late afternoon, went as far as Pittsburgh, where we spent the night at a friend's place, then completed the journey on Wednesday.) But going back..... ugh.... we will drive the whole way in one long haul. Sunday is going to be the longest day of my life. But, anyway, it was so worth it to surprise my family! I wish I had thought to video-tape their responses when they first saw me! Oh it was so amazing! But the time is going by so fast, which depresses me. :(

But I don't want to think about that. Instead, I shall write about the good thingss of this break.

I am home! I am with my family, got to see most of my immediate family, and visited with my childhood best friend! I ate wonderful food and have continued to eat good food since then :) I have relaxed, finished a project, played DDR, and SLEPT!

It's been just enough of a break to make me want more. Like a teaser. I only get a few days, then I have to go back..... but soon enough, I'll get a nice long Christmas break! Can't wait!!!

But ok, this is just a very random, rather disconnected post, which I shall end now.
