Oh Christmas. I know I should be happy, but for some reason, I find the whole thing depressing. For this reason I decided to come up with a Survival Guide.
First I think it is important to be prepared for every eventuality, so you should have a good kit bag. Try to have everything you might need including a first aid kit. In addition to your supplies, I would suggest some reading material, pen and paper and perhaps a palmtop computer.
The most important thing is to be comfortable. Try to put yourself into a zen state by focusing on relaxation. Pretend you are watching a film. As the observer, keep your interactions short and polite. You wont believe how ridiculous people are. It can actually be quite fun.
Sit, watch TV, read and chat a bit. Before you know it, you will be driving home.

It was cold this AM. For those of us who inhabit points north of the Mason Dixon Line, these are the times that make us question our choices. The B Lights are up. That is a plus. Michigan Avenue and Lake Forest's Market Square are picturesque (particularly from a warm car, train or office). It is definitely time to break out the serious gear. There are some truly great products. Arc'teryx makes amazing stuff. Let's face it; it is November. We have gotten away with murder. So, as my mother say, "Bundle Up!"

It is getting cold and the holidays are upon us. It is an easy time of year to get depressed, so keep it together.
More Soon.
