Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

Welp, I gots me:
--a ThunderCats steerin' wheel cover

I am now officially jealous....Where do you FIND that kinda thing, anyway???

Christmas was very much LOTR-themed this year...Specially for me, since the only thing I asked for was this nifty edition of LOTR in the pretty red leather book w/a box, and LOTR Trivial Pursuit! We haven't played it yet, since my sis got LOTR Monopoly, my lil' bro got LOTR chess, & me older bro got LOTR Risk, Trilogy edition. (Good Lord!!! We're OBSESSIVE!!!)
I also got a couple of cute shirts, a watch that I can clip onto my purse, a wallet with a pic of Audrey Hepburn from Roman Holiday on it, ( ), Great Muppet Caper on VHS from my lil' bro, (it was so SWEET of him to remember it's my favorite), Charade on DVD, a pair of Eeyore pajama pants, and, one my FAVORITE things, an action figure set from Charlie Brown's Christmas from my brother! The one w/Charlie, Brown, Sall, Linus & the pathetic/revived Christmas tree!!! I was SOOOO happy!!!
I sang at midnight Mass on Christmas Eve, and I had gotten myself really stressed out a/b the whole thing, so I ended up being kinda glad it was over! I hear we sang beautifully, though, and we got to do one my fave Christmas songs: What Child is this, so I was happy! (Our three-part hramony on O Holy Night, however, did not go so well!)
All in all, it was a FANTASTIC Christmas Eve & Day. I wish you all, once a vey Merry Christmas, and many blessings in the new year!

I didnt really get anything...but my mom made me veggie pizza and blueberry pancakes, and I watched Fraggle Rock, Elmopalooza, Blue House, Muppets Take Manhattan and my all time fave Muppet Family Xmas with my mom and bird. A quiet yet good yule tide day!

So yeah, no presents or a significant other to spend time with, but its all good.

The Christmas Conectiong (ie. Rainbow conection) by Beauregard
Why are there so many songs about christmas?
And why should we all really care?
Christmas is when Christ came,
To take all of our blame,
But what's on the other side?
When he grew up he still lived here,
wiped away every tear, and even rose up when he died
I hope someday you find it, the Christmas conection,
With Jesus, the Father and you....

I like your song. It's good.

My bro's a Thundercats, (well, 80's nostalgia), obsessive, so I'd LOVE to be able to get that for him....
I got ANOTHER "present" I didn't expect, today...The boquet at my friend Becky's wedding!!!! See, after being dragged to the boquet toss by my friend Mary, I did my best to stand AS FAR AWAY from Becky as possible. I was standing next to one of the bridesmaids, and when Becky threw the boquet, it practically fell into my hands! The bridesmaid, (ANOTHER Mary), had been reaching for it, and since *I* certainly didn't want it, I tossed the boquet to her like we were playing "hot potato"!!!! It was absolutely HILARIOUS!!!!!
