So, now that finals and IP are over I get 4 weeks off. I was hoping for some contract work, but that didn't work out, so now I get to spend the time with my family. Even better! We just got back from Tulsa a couple of days ago--we spent about a week there and had a great time despite every single one of us getting sick except Lexie. But isn't that what Christmas is all about!? Oh, wait, no, Christmas isn't about that at all....
It was great to see family and friends. Even though we have been in Texas for about 4 years now, we just don't have the same kind of relationships that we left back in Tulsa. People who know us well, have a history with us, recognize what makes us different & special and who are excited to see us. At least now, though, we have a date by which our transitory state will be over. When I graduate in May 2010, whether we stay in Fort Worth, go back to Tulsa or end up somewhere else in the world, we will at least put down some roots somewhere!
So, anyhow, we had a fantastic time. Special thanks to the Darcy family, who we did not see while we were in town but who were generous enough to let us use their house in their absence, hopefully with minimal physical damage to their house or psychological damage to their cats.
For those we did not catch when we were in town and those who live elsewhere, Merry Christmas. There is a reasonably good chance that we miss you very much and would love to hear from you!
