Wow- it's snowed! It really snowed! It only snowed in January last year! To think that It was 15 degrees (centigrade) mid-October - we were sweating - and now we have snow! I'm elated.

 I just watched part of Polar Express with my roomate's girlfriend, so of course now I'm in quite the Christmas mood. I'm immensely stressed and should be doing better things now than thinking of the holidays, but I can't help it. 

 I know the local ADF Grove is planning a Yuletide all-night vigil, but I can't help but feel slightly uncomfortable. There's a likelihood that I'll encounter people I don't especially want to see , who I went to college with and whom I associate with some bad personal times.

Instead, I'm considering a home vigil: a shrine to the sun, candles lit. MeteoMedia nicely lists that the solstice is the night and morning from the 21st to 22nd of December. I'd like to get my roommate and his ladyfriend there that morning, maybe that's when we could exchange gifts? We won't be seeing each other later, given we'll all be visiting our families'.

Make sun shrine
Make a  Yule Log and charge, bring it to my mum's after the Sabbat for Christmas.
What else?
