in which: we need a holiday

Hunter took me for a walk this morning. He went nuts! It was quite cold, but I needed the fresh air and he rarely gets out of the house, so we had fun. He barked at a friendly dog in someone's yard, he barked at construction, he barked at some plastic blowing in the wind, barked at a deer eating from a bird feeder... barking is a very big deal for this little animal. But I've learned to embrace it somehow and now find it strangely endearing. It's his job to protect and barking, at anything that moves a little too quickly, is his way of accomplishing this.
I can deal with that.

I am counting the hours until we can pile our bundled-up selves into Ohana and make the drive to Alabama (where my love is from). I just wanna be in that warm little house with warm little people and delicious hot food. I need it. I need to get away, if only for a few days. I've already decided that if my job doesn't give me all the days I asked off for, I'm quitting. I get too few hours and too little pay to stick around and allow them to cut my holiday short as well. It'll take us a day just to make the drive each way.

And it's important that I get to know my bf's family better. He moved out here just for me, and they hardly know who I am. Lord... please make a way for us!!

I am
Olli
