Having antlers would be so inconvenient initially, but I think eventually, you would get used to them.
"Santa Baby" is not a song that should exist.
Homemade ornaments are so much more fascinating than store bought ones. I want my tree to be filled with such things. There are some artsy people who handcraft cool ornaments. The other night, I met a palm reader. She was wearing a tye-dye T-shirt. I bet she has cool ornaments on her tree.
There is a movie about a nun and a Christmas tree. It is one of only a handful of movies that has ever made me cry. My sister makes fun of me for it, but I mooned her a couple days ago, so I guess we're even.
'Remember Christ the Savior was born on Christmas day.'
I would rather not receive any presents at all than to have people who don't know me at all feel obligated to purchase gifts for me. I'm sure most people feel this way. It's interesting how it still keeps happening regardless. (Heh heh... "regardless.")
Jessica got me a nut-bush for Christmas. Those are the types of presents I like to receive.
I remember caroling with my sister and brother once. That was nice.
Sometimes I think about that World War II story about how the fighting halted on Christmas day and the Christmas carol rang through the night in both English and German lyrics. It makes me all misty.
My goal this year, when we visit grandma for Christmas, is to try to get her to start talking about Vikings.
This is kind of related to #3, but... I remember making that popcorn and cranberry garland stuff when I was little. I'm glad that happened.
There was a boy who went to my elementary school named Mark, and I remember him telling us about a family tradition that would take place at his house on Christmas. They would eat cake, because it is Jesus's birthday.
