Ho ho hold on

I love Christmas time. I love the music and the food, the shopping, gift-giving and family time. Finding the perfect gift for someone gives me a little thrill.

A few days ago, at Wicker Emporium, I found the perfect gift for my Dad.

Anyone who knows my Dad, or has been to my house during the holidays, knows that he collects Santas. And I mean collects.
Since this photo was taken, more than 15 Santas have been added to the "army".

Anyway, that brings me back to my point. I found a beautiful metal Santa with a matching tree. Sounds super lame, but I know Dad will love it.

I was proven right tonight when we went to Wicker Emporium to find Dad's secretaries ornaments for their Christmas presents. Dad went right up to the display with the metal Santas, picked it up, and said he had to have it. I had to explain to Dad that it was Christmas time and he really shouldn't buy himself anything. It took a lot of convincing but we left without buying the Santa.

At least I know he's going to like it.

Hey future, I'm coming for you

Good thing I only work part time, applying to three grad schools is proving to be a full time job.

More like a full time volunteer position.

What's the difference between Santa and Tiger Woods?

In the spirit of Christmas, I downloaded a Lady Gaga Christmas song and it has turned out to be highly inappropriate.

"Light me up, put me on top... Let's fa-la-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la."

Who wants to go caroling?

Weather cocks

Even though it's obviously a middle-aged woman kind of movie, I loved Morning Glory tonight.

run and tell that, homeboy

Thinking maybe Halifax's night watcher would be more likely to get caught if there was a catchy song for him as well.We gon' find you.

Also, I may be the last person on the planet to have seen this video. My dad even saw it before me.

Don't worry if I write rhymes, I write cheques

While Morgan was making beautiful Christmas cards for family and friends, I was fucking around and making an imitation Warhol out of a leaf.
Get your Christmas orders in asap.
