post christmas ramblings

christmas this year consisted of 25 rellies, a pre-lunch run and post-dinner walk with much gluttony inbetween. all quite rushed tho - drove to chch on the 23rd, flew to wellington on the 24th, did the xmas thing, then flew home on the 26th, went up the clinton on the 27th and then back home again today. not really much of a holiday. and unfortunately the brain is feeling it. spent the last two days being insanely grumpy about nothing which is ridiculous when i'm being paid to be in the hills in absolutley glorious weather. think i'm well overdue for a real holiday where i don't have to be nice to people i haven't seen since i was 3 or run around organising other people's lives. bring on a holiday.....and soon
