A round round robin

Here we are approaching the week before the holidays. Its a busy time, full of procrastination and ambivalence. Am I really that person? Can I really make candy cane reindeer? Do I really feel the need to spend gratuitous amounts of money on people? Do I?
Yeah. I probably do. Its sick really, because its one of those do-they-really-need-it / am-I-feeling-guilty-and-trying-to-compensate-for-something-in-a-totally-Catholic-way sort of deals where you do not want to examine any of the motives behind your gift buying too fully, lest you begin to question the spirit of the holiday completely and have to spend the next two weeks hiding under your bed in a vain attempt at escape.
So I'm all filled with dilemma (mmm like cream filling, but with doubt!) and have a great many things to do that I have been avoiding for weeks now, and the time to suck it up and get on with life has come, and well hell, here goes.
In other news I'm up to 2.5 miles! I think once I get to 5 I can start thinking realistically about road races again. And I really need to get back there: my metaphors are not the only thing around here that is donut-like.
