I got three hours to kill before returning to work. Hop I went for the bus after picking up my medications from cousinbear’s lair which j. lo bought and mixed for me. Destination: mall. I soaked up the warmth of the mall the moment I got through the door. A welcome relief from the harsh weather and extreme cold outside. I barely made ten steps down the stairs when the warmth turned to sharp pain in the chest… Darn “Noel”, echoing in the halls of the mall.

During this kind of season, it is not just my winter allergy, ICD and SAD I had to deal with. I am also allergic to Christmas songs. I tried to block the carols from my ears… and heart, for over an hour while awaiting the photos to be developed.

I became only aware of the music again when James Blunt’s gloomy song is on the airwaves. It reminds me of Moo Moo. Now, the heck with my wounds… other souls are bleeding, too. I ran out from the mall to the cold world outside, making a mental note to bring my earphones on my future stops there…
