it only takes like three bars of the Guaraldi O Christmas Tree to put my brain into annual retrospective mode. just, click! a look back at the year that was. every heckin time.
petition to make december a worldwide month of retrospection. most other things just stop, including most jobs, and we all go "huh, that was a lot" for a couple weeks and then change to "let's get hype to do this stuff" for a couple weeks and then it's January again.
@Lady I mean, I definitely retrospect better on a tummy full of my favorite foods. by retrospect I mean nap. but thoughtful napping.
