Once in college, I was part of a huge snowball fight where everyone was in their undergarments. I was in boxers, socks and boots.

The FIL sent us a holiday check yesterday. Most of it will go to catch up on bills, with a little skimmed off the top for a few 12/25 treats.
I also had a nasty attack of sleep-deprived stupid yesterday and would have overdrawn my account if mr_cleome hadn't gone to the C.U. when it opened and done an emergency cash infusion.
So the operative phrase this joyous season...?

I find myself secretly wishing that the anti-obsesity movement would successfully change depictions of Santa Claus so that he is no longer overweight, if only because I think the countermovement to "Put the Mass back in Chrismas" would be amusing.

^Berkeley Breathed was way ahead of Eryk. There was a Bloom County strip where a slender, yuppified Santa says, "Had to lose some weight to fit into my new Saab."

Shaved my beard down to a goatee today. Might not last long, not looking forward to having to learn how to use razors and shaving cream.

I think Santa should have a built like Superman but with a nice beer belly. Instead of 'fat and jolly', more like a 'conquering hero who enjoyed the spoils of war too much'.
Which, incidently, is how I want to look.

And, of course, nothing captures the true spirit of Christmas like overindulging on the spoils of war after vanquishing your enemies!

Last night (or tonight, depending how you look at it), between Christmas Eve services, two of my brother tenors misheard me when I said that after the Christmas morning service, I was going home to mash rutabagas. They both thought I said--something else. I think this is the birth of a new euphemism!

I almost never start "Happy Birthday" at parties because I invariably pitch it too high for most people.

I hate it when girls take their shoes to dance at formal functions such as a wedding reception.

Except for a few licensed kiddie-books when I was very young, I don't believe I have ever in my life actually bought a Marvel comic.

I've had Buffy playing in the background these last three days on netflix. Trying to see what others saw in the show. So far, still just eeeeh.

200 years before I was born, give or take a few days, the United States was born.
