Sure, I may be writing this now, but all I can think of is how busy I am, of how I should be filling in my to-do board, so I can keep track of everything.

The month looks like this:

December 6th — Work Christmas Party
December 19th–21st — John visiting with Sheila
December 22nd — Hosting dinner with Naveed and his family
December 24th — Dinner at Julie’s, then sleeping over at Shirley’s
December 25th — Christmas at Shirley’s
December 26th — Dinner for Julie’s birthday
December 31st — New Year’s party at Aaron’s, then over to Pat’s

I need to go into work for a few hours in between to do some end-of-year archiving, and I’m hoping Darren’s going to be able to come up with Arjman at some point too. Then there are all the projects I’m trying to finish, both personal and professional.

I never thought I’d have a tag for “busy”, but there you go.

I’m looking forward to the holidays this year. I need the time off. I’m hoping to catch up on a few games, and finally breathe. I even miss visiting relatives I’d only see once a year, back when I had a family to go home to, or should I say, when I was so naive that I thought I knew what family was supposed to be.

And maybe that’s what I’m really waiting for.
