I must say that in my head I virtually* wrote this post at least 3 separate times, each about a different topic, each worded exquisitely. Instead of relating one of those brilliant narratives, my creative process condemns me to producing a mediocre juxtaposition of a few sundry thoughts.

Merry Christmas. I’ve been having a pretty great Christmas, family and friends have been wonderful. I have communicated well with many people, and received many beautiful gifts (that I will post about later.) I feel bad though about spending money–because it, when spent, does not bring me the sort of thing I am seeking.

The ticking of the loud clock clock clock has not yet stop stop stopped.

*above, the word “virtually” is used not as the common expression, but more as if I actually wrote it out in my head three times, even though I did not.
