So this is christmas

I don't like to blog when I'm sick, but it seems to be what I end up doing anyway. To me it's just complaining to people who come here to read about anything except complaints. Maybe that's why my readership has declined. But honestly, I haven't really done anything today except watch episode after episode of friday night lights, so a little change of pace wouldn't hurt me.

This holiday season started off strong. I made ornaments, I decorated. I bought holly barrettes to wear in my hair. But now with one more week to go, I've already lost the holiday spirit. I guess laying on the couch all day can do that to you. I was really looking forward to going to some holiday parties and dressing up a little and eating cookies and good food all weekend, but that didn't happen. I was going to make some avocado fries to bring to the parties but now all I'm left with are just avocados. I also have a bottle of wine staring at me giving me googly eyes, but I know I'll probably feel worse if I give in when I'm already feeling like crap. I guess there's always next year. And if I start now, I'm ahead of the game.

But I'm just really tired of this stupid cough. And I'm feeling quite pathetic and sorry for myself.

I'll allow myself to wallow for the rest of the night. Tomorrow is a new day to a new week. Tomorrow I'll wake up ready to hit the ground running. I'll wear something pretty, put my holly barrette on, and this sick lazy weekend will be a by gone. Good bye, bygone!

Oh yea, and Kim Jong Il passed away this weekend. Not sure how that'll change things this coming week. Should be interesting.

Oh and what is up with all these yearly lists coming out before Christmas? Usually they wait til Christmas is over I thought, and hype it up before the new year, but this year it seems to have come earlier than usual. A bit too early in my opinion. I'm not ready for this year to end yet.

I really wish I had some pie right now.
