Skyrad 0 #1 December 24, 2012 Is it just me or does anyone else get the Christmas blues? I don't mean that cabin fever you get by boxing day or the bored out of your brains by Christmas evening or even the 'ah well that all the presents opened' but just a slightly sad feeling. Nothing in particular wrong and not depression just a blue moment over Christmas. I didn't think I'd get it this year as I have so many fantastic things to be grateful for and happy about so was surprised to be sitting here on Christmas eve wondering why the slightly sad feeling. Is it just me?When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #3 December 24, 2012 QuoteHm, guess its just me. Nope. Not just you. I'm trying to keep busy today. No family events today, most of my friends are with their. Weather cold and snowy, so i't mostly indoors stuff. So I'm doing a bunch of little things around the house. Taking care of a lot of those "I'll get to it one of these days" things that seem to never get done."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

FlyingRhenquest 1 #7 December 24, 2012 I have occasionally in the past. It's a mix of nostalgia for a time when there was more wonder associated with the season and not being with family. This year it's been so warm it really hasn't felt like "The season" at all. It was a beautiful weekend for skydiving, only a little on the cold side. At the moment I have a Christmas headache, which probably means some snow's coming, since I didn't really hit the Christmas tequila that hard last night. So maybe it'll feel more like Christmas in a little while.I'm trying to teach myself how to set things on fire with my mind. Hey... is it hot in here?

christelsabine 1 #10 December 24, 2012 Quote Downer Dear, this is no X-Mas blues, just a simple midlife crisis. As soon as your wife tells you that your butt in those jeans still looks the same like 3 yrs ago, the world will be vertical again. Have a glass of fine white, dry wine (or take the entire bottle, you decide) - and enjoy that you are the best looking dude of the world.

Karen89 0 #17 December 24, 2012 Tis snowing here. :( I've only had 2 IAD jumps! I need to move to Arizona asap! and no mistletoe for me, because someone had to be lame and break up with me three weeks ago, haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZigZagMarquis 9 #18 December 24, 2012 There's nothing in the BSRs that says you cannot do student jumps on Christmas and I've seen skydivers jump and land in snow... even here in SoCal! As for break-up v. mistletoe... sounds like the perfect reason to BE hanging out under the mistletoe! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
