OK, I can't find my ipod. Lord only knows where I put it.

This is crazymaking. I brought it back from the trip, but...it's nowhere. Ahrg. I don't think there is any possibility it was stolen, I just expect I put it somwhere really random.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Is it way too early to decorate for holidays? I want to put the lights up!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

If you want to put them up, go for it.

I have a tendency to leave holiday decorations up for a very long time. When it's all cold and dreary outside the last thing I want to do is take away the cheery lights.

I haven't had a tree in a couple of years because of the cats. I should put up some lights without the tree.

First weekend of December.

I also recommend ditching the tree in the interregnum between New Year's Day and whenever you have to go back to work. Otherwise you wind up in a horrible, holiday hangover space.

Also, I personally like to plan something low key but fun for mid-January to help get me out of that month with my sanity intact. Anything that involves positive reward and most of a weekend outside in the sunlight will work.

FOUND IT!

I'd put it in the tin I keep safety pins in(?!)

I don't understand my logic sometimes.

It seems like most people around here put up their decorations right after Thanksgiving, and Thanksgiving is late in the month this year. Go for it.

I'm trying to decide if it's worth the trouble. I find not decorating depressing, but the idea of the time and effort is depressing too.

There are Christmas lights up in my town in a few places. It's disconcerting, but also help mitigate the shocked double-take when I go into stores and see Christmas stuff. I keep forgetting it's that time of year.

I don't decorate. So I say borrow my weeks of decorating and go for it it you wanna.
