That time of year
I feel the need to verify my existence every once in a while, so I might as well do it on the six year anniversary of this journal. It's sad that several of my friends have become friends. I'll still probably hang around until everyone has become a friend. The annual Scrabble recap of the year will be coming soon. I was pretty inactive this year, and also pretty ineffective. I could never seem to play well and draw well at the same time as often as usual.
This has been one of the less depressing Novembers in recent memory. I think late November and early December has become my new depressing period, mostly because two of my least favorite memories occurred during that time. Fortunately, I've had enough going on to distract myself from depression. Mental and physical help, game nights, and cross-table esoterica has been good for the soul.
Thanksgiving will be a multiway tie for the lowest attendance at the Mallick household, but for good reason. The rest of my family will be at the home of the newest Mallick who I've yet to meet. Her middle name is Elyse, which puts an end to the long streak of names beginning with consonants. Watch out for her in the 2025 NSSC, if not sooner. Maybe we'll all be using one lexicon by then.
