I want to see big, real, decorated Christmas trees.  I think listening to Christmas music triggered it.  and seeing snow in the forecast.  and realizing it's December already!  I remember last year, I went down to Chicago with my dad, and went to some old stomping grounds- places along Michigan Ave, I'm sure.  It was nice walking around and looking at window displays and spending time with Dad and remembering past winter seasons.  Going up several flights of escalators and still not seeing reaching the top of a Christmas tree!  So now I am thinking about iceskating and hot cocoa and building snowmen.  and brownies.  and the song phrase "I've got my love to keep me warm."  In a sense, it can be empowering to be excited about something or someone and to use that feel-good energy to keep a positive outlook on other aspects of life and to maybe even feel warmer, because if we're up in the clouds, not really experiencing life as harshly (or accurately) as before, than maybe we don't notice realities such as a fierce, cold wind trying to push us around.  'Love' could also be a person, and a nice hug could do the trick.  Before I get to far-stretched, I'll go back to work.  :)
