Thought from Snowmaggedon


"I don't have anything clever to say, and I don't have a funny story to tell. I will say that it wasn't easy for Mitch to leave the military and start over again in California." old man from Elizabethtown.
Now, I have watch E-Town twice in one week and am contemplating watching it again. Don't judge me. It's a fantastic film and when there is 4 feet of snow blocking your way watching a favorite just makes more sense.

Also, good to know no matter where I go to school it will be architecturally unsound. Evidentally the pavilion between these two buildings couldn't handle the snow.
I've also fallen in love with the music of Kate Micucci. She guest starred on Scrubs as Ted's girlfriend in season 8 and played a ukulele and it was fabulous. I finally found her EP and have
been listening to it all week. "no no no I never liked you liked you liked you. please remember I'm a kid, I don't wanna be married. yet."

And finally I have been rereading my journals. I do this every four years- it's usually very funny. I am struck by Sophomore year Hannah. A very forward thinking person with lots of ideas, horrible spelling (that's still the case) and a very dramatic sense of impending... everything. I thought in four years I'd get married, have two degrees, be moving oversees or across the country and, of course, have two new dogs. Rather, my dog died, I am still terrified of marriage, I only have one degree and am working on my second, barely, and I haven't moved very far at all. Have I changed? Have I learned that life doesn't stay in a neat deck? It's not one thing after another, you don't draw from the top. Rather, it's like the pond in go fish. All the cards are there, but what order you pull from the strewn collection is entirely random. You just work with what you've got and keep going. Eventually, they'll run out.
