I’m happy. I’m certainly a lot more in the Xmas spirit this year. Probably because I’ve got 5 days off, but mainly because I’m not working at all Xmas day!!

For those of you who haven’t been following the progress (in real life) of my shift rota, I was working XMas eve nightshift, which meant that I’d finish 8AM Xmas day. Grrr. I was spitting blood. Would they really be open up until then? I kept asking, and they wouldn’t confirm nor deny my fears. But, yesetrday morning, they did. And I finish at 8AM Xmas eve! Result!

So, Xmas is back on! It’s always a funny time for me, the ‘mas. Makes me wonder, why, on one particular day of the year, we all have to be nice to each other, and give each other expensive presents. Why just one day of the year? Surely, we can buy our loved ones presents at any time of the year?

But then, as nobody loves me (aww), it doesn’t make any odds what I think.

I’m looking forward to the new year. And, although all I type about every bloody year are my New Years resolutions, and end up breaking them within the first three days, I wonder if I could keep them going. Of course, if you don’t know them by now, you will never, never, never, know them. Actually, after flicking through the archives, it’s really quite possible that you don’t. So, I’m going to stop drinking. No, really.
