Left Overs

So I wrote some things while I was away.. but my internet went bad so I couldnt post them... I am posting them now. (kinda late, I know).

So... It's Christmas again. Not exactly the same feeling that I had as a child or even a teen. Actually, it was a few years into my 20's before I could really shake that excitement that Christmas would bring.

My Christmas Eve has been ridiculous. I stayed up all night, woke up at 11, and had to rush to get ready for a "family" lunch... I was a mess. Tired, no appetite... no mood for socializing... as the night was ending I decided to watch "It's a Wonderful Life". I'm 27 and I've never seen it. I also decided to drink an excessive amount of wine... I mean that's what you do when you having a tough Christmas eve. So... the combination of all things left me swelling up with tears at the end of the movie. I wasn't expecting that, but at times it's just what you need.

It did help me put some things in perspective. A lot of things.
