As usual. The same lesson repeats at this Christmas too. Lesson about people. The ones I helped most and gave most to... this past year, mostly didn't even bother to say Merry Christmas (with exceptions of course). And the ones I never even expected to hear from or the ones I didn't give any special treatment to... called/wrote... wanted to wish me well. 

People I helped start their profession by finding them a job, people who I lend money to after they begged me... and etc... are nowhere to be seen. I haven't yet (the day is not over...) received even one Merry Christmas from some of them. Their ungratefulness is the biggest gift to me... Something that will inspire to make me stop lending a hand and helping people that don't deserve it in the next year. To think twice when I find myself losing my time with their problems and needs. Twink twice before I help them with connections at work.

But there is also one other lesson - you can expect to find love, care and best wishes from people you didn't even notice before. Sometimes people you perceived as long forgotten acquaintances. People you didn't even like. And I believe all this is happening... to open my eyes. When one door closes, another opens. Thank you God for showing me the true nature of people on days like these.

@DRW50 Oh no I did not know danfling had passed away. I’m very saddened to learn that. Despite the quirks I enjoyed his message board back in the day (Anyone know whatever happened to regular poster Tess from there?) and learned a lot, as well from him here at SON over the years. May he rest in peace.

@slick jones I also appreciate the hard work put into those cast and character lists.  The ATWT and GL ones in particular actually helped filled some gaps for myself. A wonderful resource indeed.

The moment... when I don't eat in our freaking apartment, because Elmo (our dog) is sleeping and I know that me eating will disrupt his sleep. I mean... I will start losing weight if I continue thinking of Elmo before myself.

I just don't want to wake that sweet soul and make him beg for food. So... I'll sit here and suffer in hunger. Till he at least goes to the other room and I can the open the chips.

For some reason I am still waking up an hour after coming out of bed. I can't process I'm not sleeping. Must have woken up during some deep sleep moment. I feel like a moody puppy. I still haven't had anything to eat and every noise annoys me.
