Those other doctors certainly picked a very festive time to take me out of my "fictional reality", as they put it. Luckily, I didn't have any plans to disturb. I got a 'Merry Christmas' right before my I'd imagine standard 'Hello, you're fictional' speech yesterday.

Help a poor new arrival out, will you?
On a scale of one to ten: How upset should I be that I'm here? It's so hard to make a clear judgement a place when it's decorated for the holidays.

Well, how do you feel about surprise kissing?

[burlap]

[ what. ]

I'm not particularly fond of it.

Good news is, that seems to be the general consensus on the island, too!

Not so good: we just had a couple days where we had to run around kissing people we didn't know. So if the surprise mistletoe comes back, you're kinda screwed.

How terribly awkward that must have been for everyone.
Coming back after Christmas wouldn't be sensible so hopefully I just missed it.

I don't know if being 'sensible' is really a thing here, but we've had a few incident-free days, so maybe there's hope yet!

I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope holiday spirit spares us.
