un peu de fatigue

Sorry for not posting here more often: this is busy time. My life can be summed up in four words: work, shop, sleep and work. Sometimes I eat, or have a chat with my coworkers, and I even get a chance to wash my hair once in a while. An atypical x-mas season. It's all very exciting though: I love the snow, I love giving stuff to people I care for, I get to eat chocolate in the morning (abundantly supplied at work), Ottawa looks like a white fairy land with it's lighted trees and castle-like Parliament.

At the same time, making merry is not always possible; periodically, insanity peeks through, when I pass a screwball on the street, or in a store, and they say something totally wacky and kooky but deep down I feel the same way they do. Gotta get more sleep. Gotta beat that cough. Gotta keep my all my marbles. How are you dealing with it all?

Despite the craziness of it all, I love the fact that in the next few days there will be chatty gatherings, awesome gifts, an insane amount of rich foods, and the infamous Brontë clan.
