whiny bitch...

I hate this time of year. I really do. Not Christmas, but POST-Christmas, New Year's, and after. It just depresses me. The decorations come down, family goes home, we go back to work, the "merry" time is over. The new year brings with it all of the "looking back" and facing the reality of just how quickly the years of our lives pass by. All the things that happened, all the things that didn't happen... The closing of a chapter... Hmph.

I guess I'm just too much of a cynical sentimentalist to enjoy the feeling this time of year evokes. Just call me the New Year's Grinch.
