Title: Happy Christmas!
Post by: Glaurung on December 24, 2014, 09:57:44 AM
I'm not sure I'll get the chance to say this later on today, and for some people here it's nearly Christmas Day already.

I hope everyone reading has a joyful Christmas, whether or not you celebrate, and whatever you're doing at this time of year.

Once again, Merry Christmas to all :)

Happy Festival of Festival Theft!

On this day in the calendar, it is traditional to take, appropriate and edit other people's holiday celebrations to your hearts content, at which point they will probably claim to be grievously offended despite the change making almost no difference to their lives and despite the fact that their belief system stole it off someone else beforehand anyway. Some more traditionalist observers of this festival still try to uphold the old tradition of enforcing the newly stolen festivals by fire and the sword, but in most cases these days a more symbolic form of celebrating by sanctimoniously grouching about other people's way of doing things is more common.  :)

(It is getting on for half two, I am still coughing badly and feeling very rough and not awfully Christmassy :( )

I have to do all the stuff I was supposed to do before Christmas after Christmas plus all the stuff I was supposed to do then anyway and I'm not sure if I physically have time and aaaaaaah :(

Am happy for you though :)

I'll get through it somehow. Its just a lot of pressure and the results feel more arbitrary than anything else so I don't even know if working flat out on it will get me where I want to be. :/

So I had a few hours sleep in the end, if not much. Going to be quite out of it today though I fear, and got to somewhat hide from my Grandpa/other stressed family members the fact I'm getting such an achey chest :s
