I'm a self-absorbed Bengali-Torontonian; Fish comes to me raw, wrappend in seaweed, not cooked in curry; I love watching thunderstorms and rain; Sad endings make more sense to me than happy ones; I hate empty walls.

Is it strange that I'm drowning myself and everyone around me in Christmas spirit this year?
I want a tree to decorate in my apartment,
String multicolor lights, bounts of holly all around,
Surround myself with Chocolate boxes ..
and individually wrapped Toblerone pieces too,
Singing 'Jingle bell rocks'.
It IS peculiar.....because I'm such a Scrooge most of the time. I scoff at the December'Cristmas Carol' cartoons, Ba-Humbug my way through all the gaudy christmas mall decorations and Santa's annoying little 'helpers'.
Maybe its being on my own in a city with beautifully lighted trees.....or maybe I can feel myself slipping into SAD soon and trying to cheer myself up.
Anyhow I got a tiny decorated plastic counter top tree for the apartment.
I can't have lights up or even holly- darn cat, or chocolates at home otherwise I'll never fit through the door. So I filled up the plastic skull at work with Hershey's kisses for everyone and am humming 'Jingle Bell rocks'.
The weather is just purrfect too ...from the inside atleast.
PS: just to top it off....I'm totally addicted to Shortbread cookies! All-Butter ones too! hmp...maybe I should have started my diet plans after the holidays.
aar bolishna. i HAD bought chocolates for you to send with Nanu.......can you believe that both are suitcases are packed tight?!! not with her stuff, but stuff that my mom and my khala have sent for the family. ugh. sorry kiddo. I'll see if I can squeeze something small in her purse when I see her off at the airport on thursday.
dont' be silly! i was just joking --- dont' send any thing - i'm fat enough as it is! and there's a million chocolates here which taste FAR better than the ones back home since they coem from the middle east!
