I'm still not feeling any of the "holiday spirit". Not at all. It's been weak before but this year it is completely lacking. It really freaks me out that the holiday is here already and will be gone long before I ever get on board.
I managed to get all of my errands run last night and was home, and asleep, by 6pm. I feel asleep on the sofa. Woke up around 8p, watched some TV, them moved to the bedroom where I was in and out of sleep all night and morning. I woke up at 5a and turned on the news - falling back asleep and dreaming of tamales as the news talked about them, and hundreds of people lined up to buy masa, every 5 minutes. Now I really want some tamales... but only from one of the places featured on the news (I'd go but you usually have to place orders ahead of time).
I got out of bed "for real" at 11, when the postal carrier rang the "bell" (buzzer) to let me know I had a package. Merry Christmas to me... my BeSpun Pole Workout dvds arrived! (I'll review them later.)
Sooo... what to do today? We're supposed to be expecting a major storm so if I'm going to drive any distance, I should probably do it soon. I'd like to get some more coffee, though I can probably wait till Friday. I'd like some turkey - but that means braving Bristol Farms, which will be PACKED with people getting fancy foods & drinks for the holiday. Plus, I'd have to pass a Target to get there - which means traffic from hell.
Maybe I'll just stay in my pjs all day? I don't know. It's strange to feel like I'm "supposed" to be doing something - but I have nothing to do. It makes me uptight. Maybe I'll take a xanax, bundle myself up in a blankie, and spend another day asleep. I don't have to do anything or be anywhere till 3pm tomorrow (boss' house / dinner).
To all my voxy peeps: Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Good Kwanzaa, and merry merry happy happy anything you celebrate!!
