7 days!!!
Okay, so normally I'm not so excited for Christmas. It comes, it goes, and usually I wind up with a few crappy giftcards, a headache from family screaming and Winter Wonderland stuck in my head for three weeks after. Maybe I've always been more of a New Year's Eve fan, since traditions are much happier for me then, you know, stealing eggnogg and pretending someone is going to run in at midnight for me to kiss, as opposed to the poster of James Dean that I usually ring in the new year with. But this year, I'm on a mission and practically obsessed with counting down until the 25th. I helped my dad string lights outside and than insisted that we buy the biggest tackiest inflatable snowglobe we could find and rival the neighbors. Let's just say they've got nothing on us, and I was really considering buying 18 pounds of fake snow to up the competition. I've been baking Christmas cookies daily and I think if I make a fourth gingerbread house to add to the collection, I might end up orphaned. I don't know what it is, but I'm Christmas-crazy. Maybe it's the subliminal messages in Phantom Planet's christmas music, but I want to spread so much freaking holiday cheer. I've been caroling and I'm pretty sure that I'm going to buy a Santa outfit for the dog soon and hand out presents to people I don't know.
But besides all of this selfless giving, I'm your typical teenage girl, in that my list of what I want is nearly twelve pages long. I now bring you the summarized version with explanations....
1. Jude Law. I know, I know, you're probably thinking about how I would look adorable next to him, but let's not forget the biggest obstacle: I've never talked to him yet. I figure we can work something out, and I know he'll look good in a bow. Haha, I don't even know if he's around here or taken but I'M SORRY, I DON'T MEAN ANY HARM AND I CAN DREAM. Ps, Jude, I'm fifteen, I might need a nanny......
2. Magnetic Poetry. Okay, seriously, if you don't have some, you don't know what you're missing. The ability to write messages with only selected words that only mean something to you is better than crypticmeanings. I'm always leaving messages for people if they have it, and c'mon, I really think that everyone should have watercolors, magnetic poetry, and a harmonica. And if you can name that quote, I might have to add you to my list of things I want.
3. Anything related to The Office. Along with drinking more hot cocoa than humanly possible this week, I have been watching Season 1 and I am in love. Why have I never watched before? I was obviously suffering without it. If anything, it's something to keep me happy until February 7th when Lost comes back and I can breathe again. Dwight is a genius, and I'm nearly peeing my pants laughing every single time I watch. I'm obsessed with Jim, the water cooler, and don't forget- I'll always be your biggest flan.
4. World Peace. This one isn't actually on my list, but I heard a little girl in Santa's lap on tv ask for it, and I think I "awwwww"-ed pretty loudly, even for being Kaitlin Cooper. Even though like UGG Boots, World Peace seems to be "out" this year, I still think it's cute. And you know, war is over if you let it and all that jazz.
5.The Dark Side of the Garden T-shirt. Do I even have to explain this one? It's beautiful.
Well my gingerbread men are done baking and I have to let them cool and then put them in suggestive positions outside the gingerbread house, but Merry Whatever, and a Happy New Year to all of you.
