Paradox appreciation
manipulation by me ^^ & gallery coming soon!It's too much. Israeli air strikes on Gaza got two paragraphs in the newspaper today. On page 4.
66 people have been killed in suidice bomb attacks in Iraq in the last three days. I'm almost glad the ODT doesn't run much of it: my head would explode. Surely there must be something good going on out there - what about the G8? That hasn't had setbacks, to my knowledge (which, obviously, isn't that broad).
Cynicism isn't healthy! *slaps hand* I'm going to stop right there. Back to my little world of holidays and venison sausages... paradoxes are too much. Another paradox. I think I'm growing to like them. (And even though the exact paradox isn't clear, I am unwilling to delve deep and find the words to explain them properly. You shall have to guess.)
Xmas countdown: 11 days
That's cheered me up a bit. ^ - ^ It's too late to be posting... *rubs eyes* *yawn*
The tree is up! We've decorated it with all the traditional stuff: tiny presents wrapped in tin foil, silver and gold baubles, tinsel, wooden bears, fuzzy woolen stocking made to hold the yummy homemade chocolates that come out of grandparents' kitchens this time of year. :-) At the very top is a gorgeous little teddy bear which looks a lot like a whippet... We're very fond of him. He's a lot lighter than the dove, too: the top branch doesn't keep falling down. --- FAMILY! --- Christmas!

I'm so much more normal than I thought I was... *shakes head* (Negative comment edited out for my own sanity.)
