Just so we're on the same page, I don't like to be politically correct. I celebrate Christmas, so that's what I'm calling it. No "Holiday" or "Non-Denominational-Emotionless-American-Holiday."
I feel like a huge Scrooge saying this, but I kinda wish Christmas would be like a week away from now rather than three days. I really love Christmas and the entire season, but I feel like I've been so absorbed in finals that I haven't been able to get into the Christmas spirit much. Of course, I've done my shopping (mostly) and I'm really excited to give my gifts away. I actually like to give gifts away way more than I like to recieve them.
So, why, then, do I feel like such a grump?
The tree is up and decorated, the stockings are hung with care, and we have made several batches of cookies. Yet, it still doesn't feel like Christmas.
Maybe it's the weather. Duluth is famous for ridiculous, snow-covered winters. But, this year has been particularly devoid of snow. There is grass. Maybe that's part of this funk.
Perhaps it'll help me to see some of the people I love who have gone away for college. It's always terrible to be without those you love, regardless of the season. Hm.
Anyway. That's boring.
I do have some good news, though: Remember that story I was writing that I neglected because I didn't have a plot for it? Of course you don't. You weren't here for that.
Well, I've come up with a plot. And, as I create it, I'll put snippets here. I will definitely hunt anyone down who decides to take my ideas and use them for his or her own personal gain. That's not cool. Don't do it.
I'll leave you with this wonderful LINK.
Sweet dreams, Internet.
