I Best Tidy Up My Head...

Adele - Melt My Heart To Stone


So Christmas has come and gone, and it was as magical as ever.

While Regina did not show up under the tree, I did get a couple of posters of her, and of course, she's looking gorgeous.

Also, ObnoxiouslyHappySister got me two tiny little fish (which I have since dubbed Dequarvain and Miss Mary Ann), along with a tank and supplies to take care of them. I'm super pumped.

And FavoriteSister got me a few CD's, hand chosen for my personal music taste (meaning one of them was chosen "because big stupid girls like it." Damn. I should never have told her about my love of Ingrid Michaelson). She's such a good sister.


But I'm honestly a big believer that Christmas is way better than just presents. Don't get me wrong. Presents are great. But really my favorite part is just the whole atmosphere of happiness and shit surrounding it. People are just happy. Even unhappy people try to fake it usually. It's great!

So really, I'm in favor of the way that the "Christmas season" has started happening sooner and sooner. For example, when I was shopping for Halloween decorations in October, and there was already more Christmas stuff than Halloween stuff. But I figure the sooner Christmas starts, the sooner people have to start being happy. So from now on, I think that the Christmas season should start March 1.

We get two months off. That's plenty.
