I promise, I won't be so bad after the 18th. unless something drastic happens, of course. we'll all be here for each other around the holidays...we'll muddle thru. speaking of muddle thru, that just reminded me, do you ever watch Meet Me in St. Louis with judy garland? the song she sings in it, "have yourself a merry little christmas" is, I swear, my theme for this years. not the upbeat version that floats around for holidays, but the melancholy/yet hopeful version she sings in the movie, that's for me this year.
not too much hibernating, okay? we have to make a pact. its okay a little bit, but we need to get out there, too. not saying dating, but putting ourselves out there socially a bit. I'm even already planning to throw a few dinner parties in my head, maybe a holiday cocktail party or two. I need to do this, as hard as it will be not to have a partner to help me. it will keep me social, not total hibernation.
