The calendar is telling me it's January 4th, but I am still sort of wrapping my head around having come from summer break to just going through the holidays without. It feels a bit like cheating and also a bummer, considering it means having skipped Halloween and Thanksgiving.
Al, we might have to have January Thanksgiving.
But it's somehow been about a month since I got here and I've stopped being surprised every time I wake up and I'm not in my bed back home, so I think we're getting somewhere. Even if that somewhere means I have to wait nearly a year before carving a pumpkin.
