Single at christmas...
My TL and I put some xmas decos up at work last week, and now I'm beginning to think about the season. I'm making a christmas music cd and downloading a christmas cartoon. I'll be working on Christmas day, and I'm getting a bit pissed with ma famile around the lack of organisation happening. We normally do a Secret Santa thing, but nothing has been organised yet. Natalie and I were chatting about it last month. She is the one about to have a baby. She said she didn't know why we did it anymore, Craig (her partner) wasn't into it anyway, he'd rather just get Nat something and she him, and that Bree felt the same way. I said 'that's great, who's gonna get me something? who am I going to buy for?' I don't mean to come across as mercenary, but a big part of Christmas for me is the excitement around giving and getting gifts, and everyone getting together for a big meal, spending the day with my family. It seems like everyone's got their own family and that no longer includes me. that, plus working on the day, and I can understand why the christmas season makes people depressed.
