Today has gone well. I went to the dog shelter and to a movie. I got to spend time with three dogs today, all of whom wanted to give a ton of love and cuddles. One of them was a big licker-the entire time she was on my lap being pet, she was licking my arms and hands. The movie theater had a decent crowd too. Now, I'm exhausted even though it's only 6:30 pm. I was able to not give in to the temptation to have an energy drink as late as I did yesterday so, hopefully, I'll sleep well. It took me forever to fall asleep again last night.

I'm glad I decided to spend Christmas by myself. It was kind of people to invite me to their house, but I have enjoyed the time alone.
