I/we have been so blessed this year. It’s been a long time
since I had this feeling. It had been pretty rough in the past few years. Then
all of the sudden, things seemed to come together.
On 12/31/2012, we saw Skyfall at the theater. I loved the
movie. The plot was delicate. Beautiful story line and filmed well. The only
thing I complained was I thought it was odd that M was shot. I mean, she only encountered
the gunman once and thus the bullet had to travel an odd angle for her to be
wounded so seriously. Anyways, we left the parking lot after the movie and the
parking ticket and the voucher could not be processed correctly. Then the guy
at the booth said: I don’t know what’s going on. You guys can just go ahead. So
we got free parking.
Then the next day, I knitted all day.
We ran 32 km in the first week. I was very happy with the
progress. Although my knee felt funny after the Saturday long run so I have
been taking it easy this week.
I met with some friends on Sunday and had Thai food. We played
Settlers of Catan afterwards. I won. At the Thai restaurant, my friend got free
Thai ice tea (for no reason).
Work has been easy so far. I mean, yeah, my bossed annoyed
me once but aside from that, it has been pleasant.
I was somewhat frustrated with my knitting because the sizes
were either too big or too small. I had to unravel two gloves.
These are my new babies; I still need to make the flop for
the brown one. It fitted the Chris perfectly so I am happy.
Green little eye got interviews with U Mass and the
rescheduling with Bridgeport seemed to have came through. He is interviewing
with 8 programs and got 10 invitations in total. I am also visiting New Orleans
in two weeks!
2013’s New Year resolution is to run more.
