In which I am weird about religion
Only 13 more days till I go home for Christmas!
Successful days of writing: 12
I am DONE with my Christmas shopping! *Victory dance*
I am missing home more than I thought I was. I just voluntarily downloaded the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's Christmas album. God, this is definitive proof that I miss my daddy.
If I reach for the Gladys Knight, please shoot me?
For somebody who is such an atheist, I sure do get weird about Christmas. The entire year revolves around it, for me, and I start listening to religious music basically 24/7, which is... weird. But I crave it, every year. Every year I end up cursing the fact that secular music tends to be either incredibly trite or sappily over-sentimental. Only religious music is really moving in the way I crave. I just... feel odd, singing hymns. I love Christmas, and I don't want to be any other way about it, but still.
My knee nearly popped out again this morning, which means I need to start working out again NOW, OR ELSE because when my ligaments get weak enough that the knee starts popping out, I am in serious pain for a significant amount of time. Curses. I don't WANNA work out!
