It's December 1st.
There are 24 days left until the BIG DAY.
I know I should feel something. But, much like Charlie Brown, I feel nothing.
I have lost my Christmas spirit.
Driving home from work today I tried to find it by listening to carols on the radio.
And I felt nothing.
I talked to Diane and told her of my missing spirit. She suggested decorating for the season. But it doesn't interest me.
I am blue.
Blue and cold.
And I will regret this nothingness. I will blink my eyes and Christmas will be over. It's like those summers that pass when I hardly watch any baseball games. Then, the World Series comes, I watch in awe and remember how great baseball is. Then, as soon as I get excited again, the season ends and I wait for Spring Training.
I don't want to miss the season.
Joni Mitchell has, as always, captured my feelings in her lovely lyrics. Please listen to River.
