don't apologize for what you've been doing lately! this is good news and i'm glad to hear your dad's progressing (for what it's worth from an internet pal you don't know IRL!!!!). keep it up!

as far as holiday music goes, my friend joey made possibly the BEST CD ever a few years ago (it's called "jesus christ! christmas songs"). some of my personal faves on it are:
ella fitzgerald & louis jordan - baby it's cold outside
vince guaraldi - christmas time is here (hell, the entire Charlie Brown Christmas CD warms my being)
the waitresses - christmas wrapping
carla thomas - gee whiz, it's christmas
peggy lee - i like a sleighride
stevie wonder - one little christmas tree
peace on earth/little drummer boy - david bowie & bing crosby
marvin gaye - purple snowflakes
cocteau twins - winter wonderland (they also do a terrific version of frosty the snowman that i wish would have made the CD cut)

there are more songs (total is like 50 or 60) on the CDs but these come to mind.

not on the CD but holiday songs that bring me a smile are:
band aid - do they know it's christmas
anyone who sings it - carol of the bells
the temptations - silent night

there are so many things about your comments, i don't know where to begin...

david bowie and bing crosby did a SONG together?!?! the holidays bring the surreal out in everyone.
marvin gaye made a holiday song?! do people get laid in the song??? are you aware that he has a song where he sings the words "get some head"? i'm serious. silent night by the temptations is so hilariously awesome. the one guy with the really high falsetto and the other guy with the really deep voice like, "MERRRRY XMASSSS, from the TEMMMMMMMMPTATIONSSSSS".

yes, 'last christmas' has been my favorite holiday song since i was a child. once i embarrassed myself at the GAP because i got so excited about it.

also, i don't consider people "not real friends" because we haven't met IRL. two of my dearest friends, hilde and myra, were LJ friends for years before we met. now we know each other IRL and in cyberspace. besides, i get to see you everytime i look at a maxwell house commercial, "WHEEEEEEW!"
