Christmas Spirit

I had salsa, taco chips, and cheese left over from my friend's Christmas get-together earlier this week for dinner. Basically I am not in the Christmas spirit at all and I think that's fine. It doesn't help that it rained like crazy today either. I have not decorated yet but I am thinking I still should this evening. I have a visitor later this coming week so I want to be a bit festive when they arrive and it seems silly to wait to decorate. A little Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer may help me feel something. At the very least a fondness for Christmases past.

The business stuff is coming along and I even got my first customer, a Christmas gift. Unfortunately I discovered Bloons Tower Defense 5 was out so I have been wasting time with that since Thursday. Luckily most of the major business-related tasks were done before I found out. That's a very good thing. My business cards are set to arrive by December 30th so once I get those I can really get going with the rest of my promotions. Wish me luck!

Jet lag

I am totally messed up and have not been able to sleep properly yet. I didn't sleep well in Africa, or at least not long enough, and I didn't sleep well before I left. However, I still consider 'normal' 7-8 hours in a stretch, preferably 11pm - 7 am. So far I have been falling asleep in front of the T.V. by 8 or 9 p.m., waking up at 11 or 12 to go to bed properly, waking up between 2-4 a.m., and either watching movies or staying in bed till 6 to 'rest my eyes'. I really want to sleep properly like the good old days. I will try to stay awake till 11:00 p.m. if I can today and see if that helps. But, if I wake up at 2 a.m. I am going to be super pissed.
