BloMo29: Cheating on the wind-down....
So, I had a bit of a meltdown today. It's hard enough for me to manifest Christmas spirit in a normal year, and it's not any easier in this insanely stupid year, either. I was starting to organize my cards for writing and then I was torpedoed, and I spun into a serious case of the Why Do Anythings.
Christmas is not my favourite time of the year for many reasons I've written about in the past. But it's really just me, my sister and the SO now, so I try to muster up some spirit. My natural inclination is suffer grumpily into January, but I try.
I mean, you have realized by now that I watch all those Christmas movies to make fun of them and scoff in disbelief, right? No one goes from being a lawyer to a professional on the Ice Sculpture Contest Circuit. No one!
Anyway, I'm out of the funk for now. We'll see if those cards get out. I have been thinking that in Pandemic shut-down, there's no excuse NOT to get out cards.

Speaking of excuses, though, I have a good one for yesterday! The computer actually blue-screened as I tried to post and when I got it back up, the post was gone and it was well after midnight.
That's why I put up tonight's as a blank and am filling it in after midnight. I'm seriously worried for this machine now. It's been years since I've seen a blue screen of death and now there's been two in two days.
Pray to the Techno-gods for Moon, the computer. Maybe Neil Gaiman can put in a good word for me.
