It's scary quiet here during the holidays. Bars are closed, and most of my housemates are out of town. Walked down to the superette, and was pretty freaked out by the silence and the dark houses. It's worse with Paul out of town. Last year we lived in a nice townie neighborhood, so there were still kids playing outside during the day, and dogs barking at night. This year I'm living on a normally busy street. The lack of traffic noise is unsettling. I can't wait to go into the shop on Monday. I'm even looking forward to going home. At least there are people to say more than "hello" to down there.

The lack of traffic sort of bothers me. Probably because I have to find something else to complain about.
