Last night was the annual Gardiner Christmas Stroll. Instead of doing the stroll the whole time, I hung out at the Children's Corner and helped watch people's kids. It was awfully fun to see all the joy people got out of meeting Santa. It was also a self-defense mechanism to keep myself from eating/drinking too much on the stroll. I've learned that misdirection is a great way to circumvent will-power. If you don't have the willpower, just don't subject yourself to your weaknesses. This was a great way to do it. Of course, one kid did cough right in my mouth, but, whatever. Extra sleep took care of that.
There's a lot that goes on this time of year, but I would rather not miss any chances at a social hangout. Fun times.
