Hangover
It has been a long time since I had a hangover.
The alcohol kind. 35 years.
But I am having a bit of hangover from the holidays. It is inescapable.
Even if I behave myself, others around me do not.
Or, even if they didn't get drunk, they participate in the festivities in such a way that they cancel other obligations.
This is not a complaint incidentally. I am happy to have the "time off" from the routine.
I am left alone to savor my serious joy at being out of the holiday season unscathed.
We had a nice christmas with some presents from others. We enjoyed John's birthday two days before. And, as usual, New Year's Eve was pretty much a non-event.
Now, let's get on with it.
Let's get ready for the really big day, my birthday on the 28th!
