late night with b. grif

It’s late and here I am. Writing about almost nothing.
From a girl inspired from years of Seinfeld.

Welp- it’s almost Christmas and I leave Wednesday for Dallas, TX. Matt and I are going together, which is always fun. I don’t know exactly what is so exciting but I guess getting to go back home. I wonder how long Dallas is going to be home? I guess always until I’m more dedicated and in love with a place. I’m not really in love Dallas, it’s not a particularly awesome city but it holds many people that I couldn’t live without. But anyways- Christmas should be delightful. I love buying presents for my family. It’s not so much that the presents are from me, they’re usually from my mom or dad TO my mom or dad but I am the one who goes to the store and buys the present with their money. It’s a delightful process that allows me to spend money. And isn’t that what is so fun about it all?

Jami was in town this last weekend and that was great. We hung out a lot which, was delightful someone else to talk to. And whilst hanging out with others, a cosmopolitan magazine was being read and something about my love/sex horoscope for the year (ra-goddamn-iculous those magazines are worthless for any real ways to improve yourself) said in passing that I dominate conversations. And of course I couldn’t help but notice how much I did actually dominate conversations. I just couldn’t help myself- I talk, a LOT. And always making jokes louder so every one can hear them so i can get the laugh. It was horrible- actually realizing that I was the funny girl. I don’t know why it was particularly unsettling but I’m better now. I calmed down my non-stop talking with some great Christmas crafting.

I made some Christmas decorations out of construction paper and glue and coffee filters. It was fun to be a child for an hour or two and making snowflakes out of coffee filters, and a paper chain. I even made little silver stars to hang from the window and lamp. It’s cute. But oh also this weekend to add to my decorations it snowed about 6 inches. So cute when it’s all fresh sparkling, bright and clean. But by now it’s already dirty and old. Oh well.

I’m watching “About Schmidt”, which I’ve only seen once before and I remember thinking it was so sad and so awful until the end. I cried a lot at the end I remember so now I’m just waiting for that redeeming perfect part. At 3:30 am. Well I took a nap today and I’m not tired. So there’s another reason why I’m here blabbing on, keyboard diarrhea.

But I’m not the sucker reading it so- ha!
