Just a few more days until Christmas! I just got back from visiting my grandmother in Portland, to find that it had snowed almost ten inches here in Bend! I haven't really thought that much about the difference between the weather in Portland and the weather in Bend, not further than the obvious differences in any case. But really, in Portland, one would expect that it wouldn't be as cold as it is in Bend. And maybe temperature-wise, it's not, but it feels so much colder. I suppose because it's dry in Bend and so the cold isn't always hanging in the air, but while I was in Portland, it was always so gray and there was this constant chill that seeped into the bones. NO FUN AT ALL!!!
Anyways, Christmas is nearly here, and all over Bend there are decorations. It's not to be a downer or anything like that, but Christmas carols get really old after about the fifty-billionth time of hearing them. But I don't mind, because they make people happy, and it's nice I suppose to be able to feed off of other people's joy. (Wow, sorry, that seems really creepy.) What I mean is that happiness is sort of contagious, and when everyone around me is happy, it makes me happy too.
