(if you want it)
there was an
article on CNN yesterday about Christmas music and radio stations that switch to all Christmas music formats in November. We have one or two up here we've been listening to at work. And even though they do play the same songs over and over again, I love it and can bear it for a little while. Today at work we jammed to
WOXY for a little while, and they played a fantabulous mix of indie Christmas music. And a few of the standards...I mean come on, who isn't going to play Ella Fitzgerald?
But Christmastime. In church we've been discussing Advent for the past two weeks. But I haven't been doing so in my own personal life, and I'm beginning to realize that is an
unfortunate on my part. I need to be focusing on that part of the season.
Well I'm beginning to feel sick, and I have to be up extra early in the morning. I imagine it's a mixture of things; the season, I've been around a lot of people (and kids) lately, and also I've been walking to and from work every day for the past week or so. The car is pretty far gone, even for short distances. But it was a hell of a ride, baby. Almost 9 years. I think I'm going to donate it for charity when I get back in January.
Guess it's time for some Nyquil and some sleep. This is my last week at work for the year; on Friday I'll head down to NYC with Kristin and then I'll be flying home on Sunday. Looking forward to the family, to a break from life. This has been a stupid, rough week emotionally. I'm meeting with Nate tomorrow for lunch and then Pastor Scott after that, and then Becky tomorrow night. It's good to have some friends. To talk about some things. Share a few laughs. Pray.
And then I'm going home. Yea, family!
