I dislike the time of year, for a few reasons. It's a long running thing with me, and although the reasoning is probably nonsensical, at least now. I still like keeping the time of year clear so I can lock myself up and just spend time to myself.
I think about twenty years of horrible, horrible family get-togethers where I'd get attention for all the wrong reasons, for only a handful of days in a year before they go back to being at war with each other. (As in death threats, violence and the whole nine yards.)
It was probably the biggest bit of fakery that I could easily say most people would have ever been witness to, although if you dropped by, you'd think that we were the perfect family of all time and that I was just going insane for pointing out otherwise.
And I got repeat performances, year in, year out. I think last year was the first year it didn't happen, although I'm not putting any money on it being permament... yet.
I think I just keep an isolation ward open at this time just so I don't have to get exposed to it, just in case.
Who said anything about being promiscuous? Getting a significant other isn't just about the physical contact you know. Sometimes it's just about the company.
