Dec. 21st, 2025 03:06 amIt's landing on a weekend this year, and it makes sense to do it tonight, so here we go, I'm doing a proper solstice.
(That means not sleeping until the sun returns. Ideally also having a candle burning while I do --giving the sun a beacon to look for!)
My day had bells and then hanging out with Tuesday for the afternoon, since ke was briefly in town. When ker parents came to pick kem up, we had a lovely 15-20 minutes chatting at and about my bookshelf. It felt very good, to get that kind of approval (even if it's not something I would need).
In the evening, after I fed the cat, I slunk around the block to![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
verdantry's house for their and Greg's solstice party. It was small and cozy and chill. I drank mulled cider, and ate plum pudding, and had a really lovely quiet time laughing and joking and enjoying listening to the inside-baseball talk of SCD adventures. Sometimes when it's not your circus it's really enjoyable to just watch the monkeys!
Around midnight, Greg gave, in essence, a toast. It boiled down to "Community Is Good", my political stance these past some years. Community _is_ good. People are the thing that make all the rest of this worthwhile.
I hope you have people to hold you up until the sun returns. I love you! <3
