you speak your fears
“You speak your fears / thinking in circles”

“It is important that we come to an understanding, of which there is none.”

Generally unsettled, generally up and down. I should find that chart and finish it up.
Ahhh, there we go. Well. 4 good months out of 12 ain’t bad, eh? And at least the baseline at the EOY ended up a slight bit higher than the start. (Or did it? Whatevs.)
Xmas with my familia was a delightful time and I enjoyed just about every second. I was so happy to have Jeff with me the entire time after some plans making it look like that might not work out. So. Gratefulness etc. We hung out an extra day and saw Young Adult with my parents, which was quite good (my beloved city in the movie! Yeah yeah yeah!! I’m a sucka, I even saw them filming this one last year), and then made them dinner/hung out with our various devices. I came home from Target that evening to find my Dad/Jeff sprawled out watching Three Stooges. LOVE. Also got to have lunch with Katy/Rob which was great. Fun fun fun/adult adult adult (ha HA HA)! And working on Jenny’s wedding, yay. And lots of nice gifts. As usual I am spoiled.
Unfortunately we did not escape the 11 final days of 2011 without a little bit more about mortality. It is not my place to share here but man, MORTALITY. Awful. 2011, I shake my fist.
I then had to confess my Democratic tendencies (AKA Dem craziness) to my familia/Grandma at Extended Mason Xmas and it went over better than I thought. Unless I am out of the Family. HA.
Anyway.
Back at it, back at it.
Life, life.
Oh 2011, just be over!
& HBD Mike B!
ETA: I think I may have overstated my happiness level at the end of that Chart above. Oh well.
ETA2: Please get Path and be my Path friend. (Download the app to your smartphone – must have a camera enabled – yes, this is Ultimate Snobbery. A newer iPod Touch would work, too.) Path is way way cool and you should use it. I only have 3 Path friends, 2 of whom are my former bosses; I want MORE!
