I Don't Recall Breaking Two Mirrors

Mood: static
Listening to: the dogs' toenails on the floor

Did you realize that December is National Stress-Free Family Holiday Month. Now I find that to be an oxymoron. How the hell can December be stress free? With all the crazed, psychotic drivers aiming for my rear and front fenders and suicidal pedestrians crossing against the light, the blinding flashes of Christmas lights and lunatic children running chaotically into the street......stress free. As stress free as lying in a tub filled with sulferic acid after being burned in the sun.

December is also Universal Human Rights Month. I would rather spend December celebrating that. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on December 10, 1948 without a dissenting vote. Universal Human Rights Month offers the opportunity for increasing both our awareness and our activism regarding human recourse "to rebellion against tyranny and oppression."
