friday night and feelin' alright

so what is it that first year history phd students do on a friday night? get together, drink lots of wine, discuss why we ended up in grad school, eat the shepherd's pie that someone's boyfriend made and the bagged salad someone else brought, and watch 3+ hours of shot at love with tila tequila. yes. we are cultured and intelligent and together and had way too much fun with that trashy show. ;) and at the end of it i had my first hug from anyone in a few weeks from SC (gay americanist boy who i'm going to KS's with for thanksgiving - very loud and loveable) and apparently i squeezed too tight. my friends at home and school are all about the tight squeezes. sigh.... missing those hugs right now. falling asleep to sleepless in seattle.
