Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree, Where Are The Gifts That Lay Under Theee"

Dear sickness,


PLEASE get out of my body!


Sincerely, LK


These past few days have been the most boring days of 2009. I hate being sick. It takes all of your energy, you can't eat, breathe, or sleep.... and I feel like i've been under house arrest. If I watch one more Lifetime movie- I'm going to transform in to a gay man. True story. Alright, not really, but it feels that way.

On a happier note.. I'm excited to go Christmas shopping this week. I think it will raise my Christmas spirit. I've been nostalgic lately for past Christmas'. You know, the time when my parents were happy together (or at least I was naive to the fact that they weren't), my cousins would come over and the only thing we argued about was who cheated when we played checkers, and complicated meant figuring out the difference between a teaspoon and tablespoon. I hate that each year it becomes more and more about what's under the tree and who gets what. It's ridiculous actually. I miss wanting a doll or a game... now it's wii's and playstations and blu ray discs (I don't even know what a Bluray disc is by the way). Don't get me wrong, I love shopping and buying for others, it's actually my favorite part. But not because they expect it, and not because I want something in return.. I just enjoy it. I was thinking last night, the fashion industry has a cycle. Trends rotate through out every season.. I'm wondering if that happens with lifestyles.. or with technology being so dominate, will we just keep progressing forward...? Just a weird ponder from the mind that never quits.

Goodnight
