Well, I'm sad, because I'm a divorced old bachelor of many years now and I don't really have any holiday stuff here. I do have our family christmas ornaments in storage, in another state, from when I WAS married, but it's very painful to look at them, so I keep them in storage. Not to be a bummer or whatever, I guess this post just got me thinking about it, and between it being a rather complex context in the first place and the fact I don't have any christmas stuff here, welp, I have to decline the invitation this time.

It does make me think about maybe writing a christmas song though, with my more conventional instruments, synths and computer, that speaks to people who may be in my shoes, on their own at the holidays year after year, and somehow work in some encouragement or some shared experience or something. Hrm.
