I have had trouble getting into the Christmas spirit this year; perhaps it's because of the self imposed torture surrounding my procrastination to finish up my final projects for the semester. Instead of going down to Atlantic Station and enjoying the faux "snow fall" or checking out the light displays at Centennial Olympic Park, I'm scrambling to finish all of the things that should have been done by now. What's worse is that my procrastination is ultimately an act of thoughtlessness and selfishness as B has been patiently sitting in the living room for the entire month of December waiting for me to finish my school work so we can enjoy the holidays together. B is a total geek for Christmas. He is all Christmas, all the time. He's the guy who resets his car radio dial to include all the stations that broadcast Christmas music 24/7 beginning the day after Thanksgiving. He loves Christmas and I'm keeping him from enjoying it. I am such a jerk.
Here's a little ditty that has been playing over and over in my head for the past few days...sort of rings true of how I feel this year; furthering my jerkiness. Sometimes I hate me.
