Some Holiday Hype Afterall Saturday, December 20, 2003 [ banter 6 ]

I came home from work tonight to find Tori Amos crooning something about me having myself a merry christmas, a crackling fireplace DVD playing on my TV screen, and this tiny tree sitting in my living room --- all decked out, lit with trimmings, and just glowing the hell up in my place. It took my breath away. Enter Randyboy, with this sweet holiday suprise and that big goofy smile of his. I've been making big show about being indie and urban and nonchalant about this whole Christmas-Without-the-Fam thing, but it's honestly had me all kinds of sad the past few weeks. This little bite of Christmas totally melted me and my big facade. We needed a little bit of Christmas up in here, I guess, and now we've got some. Thursday morning's gonna be exactly what it should be, and I'm gonna be a happy sprite.

New and improved blogging on the way, winners! Several wonderful things have been cracking my bleak winter blues lately and I hafta lay it all out soon before I forget. Got a holiday snack package in the mail from Grandma today (once again, she's the only one who ever mails me things around the holidays)! Fudge, cookies, rice krispie squares, and CHORIZO!!! Can we say rejuvination? OH YES.




*Yes, btw, those are presents under there too, but I'm not supposed to open them till Thursday morning. Ahem. We'll see...
