Final, Character design, second semester.

It’s Christmas time. I haven’t shopped, sent out cards and have only once said “Happy Holidays” to someone (it was Santa at the grocery store. He cornered me and I had visions of coal in my stocking.)

It’s not because I’m boycotting the season. I love Christmas. But my brain can only handle thinking about 20 things at a time and Christmas would make it 21. Catastrophe would ensue. I’m longing a bit for the days when Christmas was simple, meaningful and exciting.

It’s not too late. I’ll reclaim this Christmas if it’s the last thing I do! [Ashely: prances to stage left while dressed as Christmas elf, poofing glitter into faces of audience.]

Hope your Holidays are quiet and restful.
