OK – I know it’s not traditional to think black during Christmas, but it’s all I’ve been thinking about. I know, it’s weird/strange/freaky/unconventional/almost scary. I’m thinking polar opposite and having fun with it, though some would think I am more in mourning than celebrating. It’s bizarre to have a desire to try something so out of the ordinary during the holidays for me, however, I love the color black so why not try and make it a staple for Xmas. I love the traditions that come with this particular holiday. I love everything that Christmas is and what it represents but I want to do something out of the “norm” this holiday. Maybe that’s why I’m going a little goth this Christmas season. I don’t want to ever be bored or robotic about the holidays so I’m vamping the customary colors up, or should I just say, blacking-out. I’m not so sure if it will be something I try once or will keep up for holidays to come…eh, I’ll give it a whirl.
