One month to the solstice

[prillalar]

I can make it!

I hope. If I were independently wealthy, I would spend November - February in the southern hemisphere. I find it hard to deal with the short days here, especially since it's usually overcast during the day at this time of year. My winter ennui has set in and it's hard to get off the couch, even metaphorically.

I don't celebrate Christmas or any other holiday at this time of the year. I'm an atheist and a curmudgeon and an introvert. I just want to get through until we're out of the belly of the year.

Come back, sun. My brain needs you.

I can live with short days, but I hate snow and ice and temperatures below freezing. *pines for San Francisco, where it just gets wet*

I used to live further north than I do now and while we had snow and cold and fewer daylight hours, the days were sunny and, with the snow, very bright. I miss that a lot. Right now I kind of feel like I want to stick my head under my desklamp. *g*
