Christmas has taken it's toll.

As I write this I do not feel well. There is a waft of chocolate coming from somewhere and it is making me feel ill. Christmas was full of too much of everything. Too much food. Too much drink. To much. I survived up until this point and it's this insignificant wiff of chocolate that has pushed me over the edge. I am over Christmas. I could do with maybe another week off work to recover but I have to return tomorrow instead. Omg I think I might vom. Genuinely. I have to stop typing because I have to vom. God damn you over indulgence!

I just keep getting distracted.

I am way behind in life right now. It's less than a week to Christmas and I have nothing bought. NOTHING! By now I really should have all my presents wrapped, super creative cards made, warm woolly stuff knitted and a hilarious video based around my family and our Sunday dinners cleverly edited. The reality is I have nothing. I have knitted a bookmark for my mother and a hairband for my sister. That's it.

Here is an example of what I can do when I put my mind to it:

Nothing says "happy fathers day" like a homemade card and tin foil picture frame.


Now is the time to panic I believe, but I'm not panicking for some reason. You see I have zero motivation for anything that requires effort of any sort and I keep getting distracted by things.

Things like Star Wars. Which has pretty much taken over the world. Here as I sit and type I am eating a chocolate bar with Kylo Ren's masked mug printed on the wrapper, same with the fizzy drink I am chugging. The huzband is playing battlefront and cursing at the screen "fuckin' move Darth!". I go into to work which is predominantly staffed by nerds who have seen the movie every night since it's release. I have not seen it once and it hurts my heart. Admiral Ackbar was right, it's a trap! from which there is no escape. Star Wars is everywhere and it's distracting.

 See what I mean? I can't even get through a post without thinking Star Wars. I will see it eventually.
 
I suppose I really should get started on my gifts instead of writing this. Which is just another distraction to be fair. I have neglected it for ages and ages (sorry about that btw) then the second I decide to maybe get started on that super hilarious video for the family I think it would be a better idea to write a blog post that has no point or no doodles.... Mother of god. It's now half twelve. GOD DAMN YOU INTERNET AND YOUR DISTRACTIONS!!!
