I went to see The Family Stone with the family tonight. Eve, mom, Gil and Diana. It was nice to be with them and it was a good, funny movie. I spent most of the day with Diana, which was really fun. We laughed a lot. Tomorrow I’m going to the elementary graders Channukah performance at the synagogue. It’ll be cute. I think I’ll bring my camera.

-quick interruption- ok has anyone seen the movie The Invisible Circus? Because I’m watching it on TV right now and is that chick on drugs or is she just crazy when she’s wandering around the streets of Paris? Weird movie. -Ok, end of interruption-

I love the snow, I’d forgotten how much. It’s quiet, that’s why I loved it so much when I was little. I think that’s still the reason why. It muffles everything, even cars and gunshots from the neighbors. It covers everything up and makes it beautiful. I used to sneak out of the house in the middle of the night when I was really young, like five or six, and stand in the middle of the field when it was snowing. I would stand there as long as I could tolerate the cold and enjoy the quiet. I used to imagine that the whole world was a secret when it was that quiet and if I listened hard enough I could hear all the secrets. I was one strange little kid.
