So, my darlings, it's been Christmas time for many of us. Many of are beyond exhausted by the event. I was talking to Mr.Guy at 6 o'clock today. I felt like I was going to sleep very soon and confessed this to my dear friend.
Upon confession, the burden grew no lighter. I still felt like I was going to sleep very soon. I felt like I was going to sleep even sooner, actually, since I didn't feel guilty about hanging up the phone with little to no explanation.
In between the phone call and this time I have taken a bath and watched cartoons. Yes, indeed. Two and a half hours spent productively.
But what's productively got to do with today? Today even the dogs haven't moved. Joggers, bicyclists, big trucks--nothing has made them move or bark. They've twitched in their sleep, Sprocket went on a little safari to the woods, but since then, no movement. No begging, not whining, no anything.
I am searching for a photo that demonstrates what the holidays have done to me. It isn't a photo of me, but it does demonstrates the effects of this holiday on people who have very similar genetic makeup.
Keep your eyes peeled for this photo.
