Every December is hard for me. December has passed, yet this winter I haven't had the time to sit with my thoughts and feel the things I need to in order to get through my usual aches. It's not a seasonal depression in the traditional sense. It indeed is depressing- and is indeed very seasonal...
Do any of you have ideas for my soundtrack to my latest idea 'Blankets & Stars'? In this piece of fanfiction, by the way, Lady Penelope and I spend time in the room we share while everyone else parties wildly in the living room - and by everyone else, I meant other characters from Thunderbirds...

I got hit with a blast of cold here so it's crappy... Haha.
The snow outside is getting thicker, heavier, white... As you step outside, it isn't just "freezing cold", no. Freezing cold is when you're wearing two coats and three pairs of socks waiting for the bus. This... This is arctic cold. This isn't just snow. This is my prediction of Wintergeddon's return... This is Wintergeddon The second.
