After nearly two weeks of feeling like total crap, I decided to accept an invitation to go into the city yesterday. I’m glad I did. It was a springlike day. Pete paid for everything. YAY.

The holidays are really starting to feel like a chore. I wish it weren’t so. I’ve come to understand I can change this, but that too, feels like a chore.

I decorated again this year. Or rather, I “decorated” in 2000 or so, and I haven’t un-decorated since.

mommy made this for me

Christmas morning, I turned on the fireplace. It’s so much easier than putting up a tree.

I’m pretty sure no one ever comes here but me, and it takes enough effort to maintain this that I wonder why I do it. I really don’t know why I bother, but it’s got to be whatever impulse made me start doing it to begin with. Between the $10 to register the domain and the time put into futzing with the software, I’ve invested quite a bit of myself into something I can’t explain. Ditto for the whole camera-phone business.

To summarize this week,… It snowed.

hey there!

And of course, Christmas started this year before Thanksgiving did.
