Nov. 26th, 2019 06:39 pmA magical portal in Chicago, huh? Wonder what's going on with that.
I can't say it surprises me really. But it sounds a little strange to think of that happening to a place I spent so much time as a kid before my powers hit. I tend to think of high winds and baseball more than I think of dungeons or dragons. Oh. And hot dogs. But I always think about hot dogs.
Anyhow, the work that I was doing is coming to a close. Mom would like me to hang around for Hanukkah (which thankfully ends before New Year's Eve this year) but I just... I don't know. It's never been easy being home for the holidays, not since my parents divorced. I'm not sure who had the harder time getting over that, me or them. Not to mention, I don't really feel all that tied to the holiday. It means something entirely different to me than it does to my mother and I feel all kinds of guilt about that. And of course, if there's one thing she's good at, it's encouraging my sense of guilt.
There's a reason Friendsgiving is a thing.
