Back at work, feeling less crap-tastic

I took Friday off to put up Christmas decorations, and still had a meltdown Saturday morning, but I haven't quite slipped into the major funk I got into last Christmas, so something is going well.  I had a few people over for Festivus, or holiday-party-for-all denominations, and that went well.  It was a quiet party due to a low level flow of booze and a few guests being tired or no-shows.  Which was okay as roomie1 needed to be in bed early.

I have to say, though, I do have the most awesomest friends on the entire planet; when I was busy trying to fiigure out how to get the last few decorations and outdoor lights up, how to find time to grocery shop and clean up my room a bit, and still be washed and dressed by 7:30, I had a crew led by mymagritte  to do the grocery shopping, a lighting and tree touch-up crew led by happynonoplace and cantony, and a cooking helper all there in a matter of hours.  My cooking buddy ked9516  even threw me out of the kitchen and forced me to get dressed so that I had plenty of time. 

Christmas Spuffy posts on Thursday at noel_of_spike, so that's exciting; I can't wait to get some reactions on that one, I'm really proud of it.  The other Christmas scene in the FAA-verse isn't going so well, but as FAA 14 is actually working right now, I'm not gonna stress madly about that one.  If I get it written by the 26th, I'll post it somewhere; if not, oh well.
