Well, it took me two glasses of Chardonnay [View all]

to do my Christmas cards today, and it's just 1:00 in the afternoon here in the Midwest. I have never felt such a sense of gloom and foreboding during the holiday season as I feel this year. Writing joyful messages on each card was beyond difficult. I want my country back.
