closing the doors

This building is settling down for break. I can tell by the way the heat is turned down and the way we have all become lowercase. There's so very little left I need to do before I can let my guard down. Just a few more papers to shuffle off to the side and then a dentist appointment (rawr) and after that I'm free of alarm clocks and appointments for a whole eleven days. I don't really know for sure, because I have been somewhat all over the place these last few weeks, but I suspect I'm going to really love this Christmas. I'm going to be comfortable in my skin.
