Happy December! How can it be that we're already near the end of yet another year? How can it be that we're on month 12? How? I really would like to know.
I have this theory that time speeds up the older we get. I think it's a pretty popular theory outside of this blog, too, but I digress. Anyway. It seems like it takes forever to go somewhere or do something when you're young. That's why kids need toys and books. Something to distract them when all that dreadful time comes between them and, say, Christmas. This month is *not* going to shoot by for an eight-year-old, for instance. And even longer than the month is that wait for opening presents!
The older you get, of course, as some of you or all of you already realize, the faster time goes. We have about three weeks till Christmas. In weekend-time, that's six days! Oh, my goodness. I don't even have my tree up yet! We need something so we can relax with all that stress. That is why adults need toys and books. And candy.
Of course, speed of time in adult-land turns inverse when you're sick. I discovered this last week, when I ended up getting a stomach virus. Ick. I don't recommend it.
So, Happy December! I'll see you around, but if my posts are infrequent, don't fear--it's just the Holidays.

Happy December to you too. :) I can't believe 2010 is almost over...it seems like just yesterday I was counting down and watching the ball drop. O_O Time definitely is going by way too fast!

You know why it is that time goes so fast the older you get-- because when you're eight, a year is an 8th of your life. That's like, an eternity! but when you're 26, it's only a 26th of your life, which is a WAY smaller piece of the pie.
I can't believe it's December. I couldn't believe it was NOVEMBER, for that matter. This entire year just got away from me! I have so much shopping to do still, too... eep.
You're so right! And I thought after nano, things would be calmer-WRONG!!!!
Have a great weekend!
