Today is the start of a four-day weekend. I didn't sleep well last night for various reasons. Yesterday at work I told a co-worker that I will be alone for Christmas. He said that he would be alone, too. His wife is stranded in Canada now and can't be with him. He told me that next year he plans to invite me to his place. I don't think that I would feel comfortable to be with him and his wife. A friend of mine suggested that I should have asked him if we could get together tomorrow. For some reason I find it hard for me to initiate getting together. It's a weakness that I have.
