Of all things...
Dec. 8th, 2003 01:24 pmI've watched wreaths and Christmas lights go up. I've been to Christmas Carnivals, I've listened to traditional carols. I've had Mum put on Christmas screensavers, and I've thought about Christmas a lot, and you know what? I was totally scrooging!
"Bah, who cares. Christmas makes me fucking miserable."
Then, I had a hankering. A strange hankering, a-mullin' and-ah creepin' and a-crawlin in mah heyad. And I put on my sister's goofy Christmas Album... The goofiest Christmas Album I could imagine listening to.
That's right.
Elvis' Christmas Album.
And holy fucking shit - there I was, bopping around, thinking about Christmas baubles and the cute little Baby Jesus bopping away with the angels and the sheep, and looking forward to being with my family and eating shaved meats and salads and strange eastern dishes my sister or mother have dug up, and listening to my Dad complain about money AGAIN yet spend heaps of it on us all as always.
And I was happy! So very happy, absolutely exuberant. I wrote letters, I smiled, I sang. And I don't feel bad. Yay! It helped that I think I had a very cool astral experience last night that made me feel just BLISSFUL. Like all this bad stuff I go through is for something special. :) Something good is around the corner folks, you better believe it. I hope I'm not jinxing it... *grins*
I love you all! I hope you're having a Merry Christmas, and a beautiful Yule. (Or Midsummer for us Aussies! Yay harvest and plenty!) (Well it's not really a time of plenty for us. It's kind of dry and living off the bones of our arses but you catch the drift LOL).
