Post-Crisp Mess post
Mine was a pretty good one.
Spent Christmas Eve over at my sister's place, where my 2 year-old niece kept grabbing me to watch her jump on their exercise trampoline.
Beneicia: "Unca Dutin! Watch! Watch!"
Hard to say no to that.
Christmas Day was at my Mom's house which was a full-assed house with my Uncle and his kids living there now. The good thing was, since there were so many younger people there, there was more labor to handle the unwanted chores like dishwashing and sweeping the floor. I still had to help out a lot with the cooking tho.
Didn't get a whole lotta swag. I'm hard to shop for, so I usually get gift cards or cash. I was happy that the gifts I got for peoples were well-received.
I took a chance and go my Mom and my stepdad a couple of mafioso-favorite CDs--Mario Lanza and Jimmy Roselli. They liked them, even though they've never heard of Jimmy Roselli.
I played Roselli's version of "There's No Tomorrow" (which is an English version of "O Solo Mio") . . .
Click to view. . . my stepdad was like "yeah, that sounds like it would be Knuckles Mangini's favorite tune!" XD XD XD
And of course, I ate like a pig at both locations. Need to hit the gym . . . a lot.
