heart wrenching

smiling is bad for the economy. please stop smiling!

let the Christmas spirit soak in...

christmas parade night

to post, or not to post...

so do I post about how hard life has been lately? or just refrain from posting altogether?
I hate complainers, so I'll opt for the latter. see you probably once k. is home for the holidays. I know I'll be in better spirits then.

sad

seasonal affective disorder, that is. though the acronym is apropo. textbook case here. sleep too much, and craving sugary starchy food. the solution? a walk in the park, a trip to the gym, go to the pool, sit in the hot-tub. every winter this happens to me, and every winter I forget, until I reach my limit and ask "what the *&%^ is going on with me?", then "oh yeeeeeaaahhh...."

so I'm off to the gym this morning to defeat my biology!

isn't that what friends are for?

I've been scraping little shavings
off my ration of light
and I've formed it into a ball
and each time I pack a bit more onto it
and I make a bowl of my hands and
I scoop it from its secret cache
under a loose board in the floor
and I blow across it and I send it to you
against those moments when the darkness
blows under your door

for all my friends, those I see once in a while, and those I hardly ever see at all.

you are not alone.
