(no subject)
Ha! Was just looking over chiller's meme again and noticed that final question, Tell us a secret. I didn't think I had one. Then I thought of several too serious to post. But now! Aha! I shall unburden myself to you, O interbets, by saying that I threw away a Christmas card from a friend who has injured me. Threw it right out!
What do you mean, so what?
We post all our Christmas cards. I tape them to the hall closet door as they come in. They are a reminder of our friends and loved ones all over the world. Kind of. Also a reminder to send our cards out. And a reminder of how much time has passed since we actually knew most of these people. But still! I put them all up. It's a ritual, with meaning. So chucking out my friend's was really bold. A guilty pleasure. I made my point!
But uh, right. I'll end up sending one to my friend. I'm not made of steel....
