Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas – Blogmas 2021

Christmas has come and gone, and I am burnt out.

Daily posting here, on top of near daily posting for Advent, plus a 12 days of Christmas Tiktok thing, and planning and cooking two meals? Yeah, I’m about done for now. But let’s wrap up Blogmas strong.

At the top of the month, I said I was aiming to watch 25 movies in 25 days, the same thing I did last year. I didn’t do it, at all. I got to the end of December 1st and just already felt tired. Then December 2nd rolled around, then the 3rd… I just gave up on it. Instead, I think I’m going to try to watch 52 movies in 52 weeks next year, aka a movie a week. I’m not completely holding myslef to that, but I’m going to try.

As for Advent… I got to day 20 and the burnout hit. Everything is completely planned out, just not finished or published. My goal is to get them all done by the New Year, post some sort of New Year’s fic, and then take a bit of a break. They have gone over reasonably well, though I feel like the big issue of engagement is because of the saturation of Christmas fics. I’ll also be glad when it’s over.

(And I have some Bingo fics to post, anyway.)

But honestly, I spent most of today, when not cooking, playing Spider-Man: Miles Morales. I’m so close to the Platinum trophy, it’s not even funny. But it’s also been strangely calming. I’ll see how I feel if/when I have to do extra work to get the last couple combat trophies (why do they exist why are they not banned).

It was a good Christmas. And I hope that your holidays are wonderful and bright!

As will last year I am planning on taking the week off from posting. And honestly, don’t be surprised if January is a bit sporadic in posting as well. I need to step back a little bit. I will be posting every episode review for 9-1-1: Lone Star as they air, but I’m not sure about anything else. I may drop an extra post here and there, but it will probably be around mid-January to February before my normal posting schedule resumes.

Until then, be safe! Until next time!
