i'm so glad the cheat is not dead!

So, homestarrunner.com has been my BEST friend as of late. I spend numerous hours giggling at all the hilarious antics of Homestar, Strong Bad, and The Cheat. So, that song is stuck in my head, and yes... I am SO glad the cheat is not dead! He is my favorite character... cute and lovable, yet a major punk... he is so the man.

So, I am thankful for the friends that I made from homestarrunner.com... they've been my leisure for the past few days. I got to hang out with some of my Clemson friends tonight... I love 'em so much. I am so thankful for my friends. They seriously are very important to me... that is why being at home is so boring. Not because there is nothing to do here... 'cause in essence, there is really nothing to do in Clemson either... it's just the fact that I have my good friends to do nothing with! YAY! BUT, I am SOOO(etc.) excited about doing SOMETHING with them next week... BOWL GAME!!! WOOT WOOT! I am really pumped. Jenee explained to us tonight that THAT is why no one is really anticipating Christmas... because we are all looking forward to something happening after it... either that, or ALL of my friends have given up on the childhood magic of Christmas all together...

I personally am really ready for everything BUT Christmas... I'm not really expecting much, so whatever I get, I'll be excited about. I am really looking forward to the bowl game (like I said) and then getting back to school... I'll have my own room, and then there is the possibility of this person that I chatted with on Wednesday night/early Thursday morning... i called them tonight... just left a message. I'm being really good about it... anticipating, but not letting it control me. As my gurl, Kate says, "expect the worse, hope for the best." I am really trying to be optimistic... but not completely "fall" (as The Alicia Keys Rule says NOT to do)... but it's hard... with the whole intellectual attraction thing... it's refreshing and stimulating... but the anticipation of this phone call and/or hanging out in person when I return to campus is sobering... it keeps me level headed.

One thing is for sure, I don't HAVE to have it to be happy. Like I said in the entry on Saturday, an r-thingy is not going to define me... it does define some people... some people that I know. But, I don't want to be known as "Hamilton, the guy dating so and so." I want people to be able to say, "That's Hamilton, and he's my friend." Yup... I definitely still want to have room for friends. The whole blasted r-thingy has made friends obselete in some cases...

So, I'm so glad The Cheat is not dead...
Some of my friends are "dead" due to r-thingies...
But, I'm so glad The Cheat is not dead.
