you can look, but don't stare



ok, listen. i know it's very dangerous territory, but after so much traveling and exposure, i felt compelled to dip into it just a little bit over the weekend. every year around this time, i start sleeping 8 to 10 hours and i also find it very difficult to go out and see other people.

yes, 'tis the season where i instinctively want to lower the blinds and hibernate... usually not popping my head out until Groundhog's Day on February 2nd. trouble is, i've got way too much above ground work to do in preparation for "RuPaul's Drag Race", which debuts on February 2nd.

on top of that, recovering from such self-indulgent behavior isn't as easy as it might seem at the onset. during this unholy sabbatical, i usually revisit "the dark night of the soul", which is kinda cute & clever in your 20's, therapeutic in your 30's, but downright deadly once you've pasted 40. the bounce back factor is utterly humiliating because of the loss of so much elasticity. so not worth the ticket price.

so, on this monday morning, i will soldier through my desire for cloud cover and welcome "the sunlight of the spirit" with open arms and a fake smile. because at this stage in the game, i know that "acting as if" is the next best thing to being there. carry on.
