well new year's eve has come and gone...now's the part of winter that always feels the longest/hardest. i'm trying to remain positive, though, and why shouldn't i, really? i've got good friends, good family, and a roof over my head. finding a job is the hardest part right now, and i've at least got a minimum-wage-style lead that can get me through this rough patch. so, here are some pictures from new year's and this past saturday!

laura and i waiting for guests to arrive at the loft!

aaron and i chatting post-midnight.

saturday night...the three wearing plaid! haha.

genuine excitement: the waiter with my water!

some game we were playing...mostly just looks like i'm taking
a girl scout vow or something.

wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2010!
