Not much happened this week, so not much got written. I’m sorry about that. Le sigh.
For the sake of filling space, here’s my Christmas haul:
- A Sumomo mug and hot cocoa to drink in it. (Thank you, Dawn!)
- CDs by Peter Gabriel, Mike & The Mechanics, and Moby. (Thank you Lil’ & Geoffrey and Mari!)
- Chocolate. (Thank you Mari… and those mint KitKats are sinful. Truly.)
- A shirt. (Thanks, Kelsey Grandparents. I can always count on you for attire.)
- Jammies and an extremely comfy new terrycloth bathrobe. (Thank you, Wendi and Alex and Erica!)
Not bad, all things considered. I spent almost the entire day in jammies and bathrobe. Mmmm.
I know that Alex liked what I got him this year… considering he spent almost the entire day playing the (Lego) Bionicle PC game. Sometimes this parenting thing is a blast, you know?
Anyway, the holiday is over for another year. I didn’t even have to suffer through a showing of either A Christmas Story or It’s A Wonderful Life. Now that I think on it, I suppose I could count that as an additional present. Wouldn’t you agree?

One response to “Merry Pippin… er, Christmas!”
The great thing about “It’s a Wonderful Life” was that it wasn’t really supposed to be a Christmas movie.
Sort of like saying “You’ve Got Mail” is a Christmas movie, because part of it occures during Christmas.
But those kinds of movies (in my opinion) make the best kind of Christmas movies.
I discovered a new one this year: “Catch Me If You Can”. Wierd, but then so am I.
