Christmas…whatever

13Dec08

Have not made any progress in securing my own island.  Still stuck between unreasonably loud & out of tune church goers and neighbour with adolescent preocupation with pop songs and concomitant delusions of stardom.  i’m in such a bad mood i’ve been wishing that God would smite the tone deaf choir members for making such an unjoyful noise week after week.  Not exactly sure what smiting entails but i’m assuming that it would result in some kind of peace & quiet for all parties concerned.

Christmas has found me uncharacteristically unimaginative, i’ve gotta get my boss a gift and i have no clue what to get.  don’t even want to think about the long list of people i’m obligated to get things for.  the thought of going any where that would bring me into contact with people other than the ones in my head makes me feel like crawling under the bed with a searchlight and a good book.  seems i shall have to outsource the gift buying once again.

i used to enjoy cooking on Christmas day for my family but have since realise that we are really just four people who live in the same house and happen to be related.  the word “family” being so gross an overstatement as to be dishonest.

2009, stop coming and come!  i really do plan to enjoy next year, i really do…really.
