but i still want to be a hermit {feb fun #1}

February Fun is off to a roaring start, although I may be confusing February with March, aka the "in like a lion and out like a lamb" month.

Regardless, for February 1 {or if I'm feeling especially French pretentious, as I'm known to feel at times, le 1er fevrier}, I was supposed to send a someecard—you know, one of those delightfully snarky and culturally aware eCards.

I chose this:


Because:

• I'm always tempted to become a hermit in the winter. This is partially why I schedule so many activities: to force me to leave my home. And by "home" I mean: couch/bed/reading nook.
• I went to bed at 8:30 last night. I'm either in full winter hibernation mode or I'm an 8-year-old.
• And the night before, I went to bed at 8:00. I think I may have mono. {Considering that I diagnosed myself with tuberculosis the other week—for reasons you probably don't want to hear about—I don't think people should trust my medical advice. If you know what I do for a living, you will find that an incredibly ironic statement.}
• If I ever develop a beard like that, I really will stay in my apartment all the time, regardless of the mild winter. I'll probably spend most of my time shaving and tweezing.
