Hello my little bloggeronis.. What is the dizzle? Sitting here in my studio office and my head is feeling a lil' swimmy... not sure why but I just took some advil so hopefully it will kick in.... oh and btw my son is still up awake @ 1030pm!!! (i think he's somehow connected to all this..hmmm.. not sure). Had a glorious few days off .. t-day was lovely and full of plates of food combined w/ family .. extended and otherwise. This was the first thanksgiving we've had since the baby came some the best thing about that was being able to pass the baby around like some mashed potatoes (which meant that we had a break for @ least a few hrs..) etc. We kind of did the buffet style thanksgiving set up w/ everyone bringing something (we got stuck w/ the brownies and ham.. which smell terrible when they are combined in the back of your car) but as usual the food was great...combined w/ football... combined w/ the traditional thanksgiving evening go-out-with-relatives movie trip. So while wiping off the brownie crumbs from my shirt here is my thanksgiving/weekly observations..
Holidays: What is it about this time of the year that absolutely drains me completly? I have such a love/hate relationship w/ this time of the year that I find myself running toward and away from it.. I love the family aspects/the food/the gifts/vibe/the meaning and hate the shopping/crowds/insanity/commericalism aspects of it... Can someone just shop for me this year and wake me when it's January? Saying grace: Is there anything more stressfull than being the designated grace sayer for all things holidays? I'm not a long grace sayer (mainly cause I'm impatient and hungry) but when it comes time to say the public grace... I feel like ben stiller in "meet the parents' :) I mean would God bless the food anyless if I reduced it to "rub and dub dub thanks for the grub?"... ok maybe not... either way...I think...ah nevermind. Happy holidays vs. merry xmas vs. Merry Christmas vs. Happy merry Christmas vs... In my opinion Happy Holidays is lame pc/ non offensice silliness... however the other funny thing to me is when people think xmas is taking Christ out of Christmas ... ok heres a bit of a Greek language lesson for everyone ... the reason we have xmas is because X is first letter in the Greek useage for Chirst (translated xristos in the greek... ) so people have used xmas for years (actually it's also where we get the fish symbol from which sometimes spells ixoye in it) point being I understand to some degree why people feel that way... but realistically all it is just an abbreviation... trust me people will take Jesus out of xmas whether you use a x or a Christ.... is it worth getting mad over? I think that anger could better directed @ the people who steal my parking space in the mall (im kidding people...) Black Friday Shopping: I love a good deal as much as the next guy but there is NO WAY im camping out @ 6am for a deal on socks... I'm sorry.. thats TOOOOO early.... however an iphone for 40 bucks? maaaybeee... ok neither is really gonna happen but black friday shopping I try to avoid all together... I'll wait till dec. 24th.. thats when shopping is the funnest!!! yeah! Christmas/decorations etc: is there anything more stressfull than a xmas tree? The stand? Digging the lights out your musty dusty garage... oh and I think my wife is gonna make me stick those dogone reindeer out in our front yard again.. Can someone wake me when it's January? I'm gonna hibernate this winter like a bear... and grow a beard too... MERRY JesusChrist bday to you all... I love you Lord.. sorry for making the observation of your birth soooo complicated w/ other stuff.... -tweezy
