modified triumph
I have finished and submitted my official report from Rice Lake. Only a month after the event! I am considering this a victory, given how much I really didn't want to do it. (Have been intending to do it since Thanksgiving, of course, and kept putting it off. I eventually concluded, Huh. I guess I've been dreading this.)
But I really need to get going on
yuletide. I have the same 861 words I had last Monday, and the same doubt about 168 of them approx., and I need to move forward rather than standing still. I will be in much more trouble if I don't finish this one on time. Aie!
... I think tonight (or some time this week, anyway) I will buy some Green & Black's and pretend it's wrapped in gold foil so I can consider it Hanukkah gelt. (I could even get some gold foil, I guess. And then pretend the bits of chocolate were circular. Why not?) (I should note that when I make a seder, I buy an ordinary brisket rather than a kosher one -- because my kitchen isn't kosher, and I'm not kosher, so, you know, right? Thus it is with me. Traditions, yes; laws, no. My little "j" gets me through the day. :-D)
