    But snowmen don't have skeletons. That is not a part of their anatomy.

    You don't even know how snowmen work do you?

    natek had a very traumatic experience with snowmen when he was a child

    That squirrel is far too happy compared to the rest of the things in that picture.

    He's plotting something.

    On Thanksgiving, the majority of my immediate family was out of town. So, my boyfriend and I set up the Christmas tree at their house and put lights on it, and I lit it up Sunday afternoon before they got home. Mom said it cheered her heart immensely to see the tree brightening up the living room on a dark and dismal Sunday night.

    Our Christmas tree went up last week. Last night we got some nutcrackers to put under it and it looks cute. Today we're off to a holiday Market to look for some new ornaments and the like. We still need a tree skirt though.

    I made molasses cookies this past week and brought in a tin of them to our parking guy at work. We have a small lot behind the building and the building sup/manager moves them around to fit them all in there and get your car out when you leave. He's also kind of mean and crazy. We're on the the floor and will hear him yelling at people every so often. My boss was at our Nevada branch for over a week and no one else wanted to so I drove in every day he was gone. Peter was ok the first couple days but then one day I locked my keys in the car (you leave your keys in your seat if he's not there when you park and out of habit I hit the lock button on my way out). So I call AAA and go upstairs with the plan to go down and tell him later.

    Well before I could do that he came upstairs and yelled at me a bunch about my car being locked while I'm telling him that I know that, that's the problem. So AAA comes and all is well. Then I bring him cookies a couple days later. And it was like The Grinch, he got all mushy and told me I didn't have to and he didn't deserve after how mean he was to me etc. Now I'm his favourite person, yay for cookies.

    We put the Christmas tree up last night, with the ancient baubles and decorations that were so beautiful when we bought them, but now look kind of horrifically funny - like the golden eagle playing a trumpet. There is so much tinsel on the tree that is looks like a trifle and quite a few bulbs on the lights are out, but oh well. It may look a bit of a jumble but it's how we do our Christmas. Last night I made a table decoration which is mainly holly so Christmas is officially here now we have something green in the house.

    My parents put the christmas tree up without me

    oh well

    christmas means nothing to me anymore

    it became all about appeasing my mum

    the only thing that excites me about this christmas is giving a shirt to a girl I know

    This Christmas was going to be one we spent Christmas with my dad and the 26th with my mom & step-dad instead of the other way around. He passed away in May though and my mom & step-dad finalized their divorce in June. So this year it's me, my sisters,my sister's fiance and her fiance's 2 kids from his first marriage this year and maybe my mom will come down instead of spending it with her new bf (the guy she cheated on my dad with when I was a kid & then again on my step-dad this spring).

    Last Christmas sucked and I almost had my dad pick me up early because my step-sister and her fiance (now ex) are crazy conspiracy theorists and they wouldn't leave me alone about their beliefs. It was insane. And Christmas Eve morning the power went out (and was out for almost 12 hours) so it was freezing and I was eating only things I could cook in the fireplace (so mini hot dogs for breakfast, lunch and dinner) and not long after the power went out I got a terrifying call from my lilttle sister. Both my younger sisters were driving up that day and they hit black ice on the PA Pike and the car flipped. They were ok but it was really stressful.

    I really love Christmas though.

    I love Christmas.

    My family spends the holidays trying assiduously to avoid it. Every carol, every shred of red and green, offends their senses.

    I am a rebel. I listen to the King's College Choir sing carols on Youtube. I drink egg nog.

    I get to spend christmas this year sleeping on the sofa at my mum and stepdad's house. It's not so bad i guess though, there'll be booze and family and sort-of-family. I enjoy Christmas well enough generally, and I should be able to see some friends around who I haven't seen in ages

    SO I already know I'm going to get a ton of Dungeons & Dragons stuff for Christmas (probably) and a book by Terry Prachett, so I'm all happy about that.

    Christmas is grand. Christmas will be great this year.

    The Christmas work party is this Friday, which means that I'll be eating food and drinking booze paid for by the firm. Helllooo, delicious food and Scottish whisky like Glenfiddich, Glenlivet, or anything else that starts with Glen. Then on Saturday, I'm hosting a Christmas party for the first time. Eggnog with brandy, beer, wine, anise cookies, and strange/weird Secret Santa gifts. :^:

    Then of course is Christmas Eve and Christmas at my parents, which will be awesome.

    And Jim Carrey has nothing on this
