dear december,

well, well, well, december, you sure took your time getting here. i have to say, in all my 313 months on this planet, i have never looked forward to a month coming (and going), more than i have you, good old december 2011.

it's not your fault, though. it's just, well, you mark the end of two things whose ends i have been anticipating for quite a while. now really, december, don't be offended. you know you're kind of a middle-of-the-pack month anyway. i mean, your days are cold and short and grey. the only reason you're ahead of july is because you might bring snow and july only brings heat and humidity. now may, there's a month!

where was i? oh, right... december, i want you to be over. plain and simple. when you're over, i will be finished with my MA and granger will be home. besides, i'm going to turks and caicos in january. so, pretty please, hurry up!

thanks
brigit
