Third

Note to self: Do not make drastic changes in your life so close to winter. Whatever it is, it can wait for spring!

Ah holidays. You're killing me. I've always hated my life, you know that. But the things that are happenning in my life right now, let's just say I'm not very pleased. It's dark and cold, I'm alone, and I have to go to bed early because I'm working very early in the morning. Not my idea of the holiday cheer they bombard me with all over the radio, TV, cellphone, etc. What's there to be cheerful about?!

I feel like Bob Crachit who keeps getting yelled at by Scrooge but he's still very excited about christmas and spending time with Tiny Tim, except that I am all dark and bitter and can't wait for this christmas business to be over. Bah humbug and all! I guess I'm more like Scrooge -  except I'm the clerk. The magic of christmas goes out pretty quickly when you have to wake up at 6 to prepare for work on a cold winter day.

If there are Ghosts of Christmases for workers bees reading this, it's a pretty good time to visit me right now... and maybe bring like a million dollars (USD please) on your way here too.
