    Have you ever considered hanging decorations from your beard? Maybe a little tinsel to bring out the festive mood in people.

    Every now & then... I do comb it with water every day, though.

    Yeah.

    Thankfully my job makes me appreciate Christmas more; little kids get so excited about it. I did a couple of displays of holiday books last week; they were thrilled.

    How is my Christmas shopping going? Not very far yet. But I usually wait, and it never takes me very long once I decide what I'm buying everyone. I may be missing some essential aspect of my second X chromosome but I can't stand to just go in a store and browse.

    VadersLaMent, I downloaded the iOS version of Minecraft for my son; he loves it.

    I'm having a hard time finding any negative aspects to this.

    Food shopping is almost done. I just have some fresh stuff to get closer to Christmas Day. Need to write & send cards (probably tomorrow) as they have to go overseas. I've got a couple of things to get yet. I'll probably brave town next week. At least I can go early on a weekday so hopefully it won't be as crowded.

    All done. My kids get gift cards as it's what they prefer. The rest of the family a girt exchange where we buy an item, for male or female, under $20 dollars and wrap it. When then play a card game and each time the winner picks which gift they want. We play 3 rounds and it really gets to be fun choosing the gift another picked. Granted the gifts may not be the greatest, one year I got a large clock with the Playboy bunny silhouette it.

    Also a Secret Santa gift which should get there today!!!!! :D :D I love SS. I've gotten the best gifts ever from friends.

    I like to be done before December because then I don't have to brave the frantic shopping traffic and can enjoy the season less stressy. Sadly, I am not quite done. I will get one last gift when I am healthy enough to go out. :)

    I decided to make gifts for most of my friends/family/whatevers this year, but I do want to buy something for my boyfriend. I know he's getting me something big,so it's like NO PRESSURE. I don't know what to get him. Taking suggestions.

    Haven't started yet. I really only have to buy for my mother and grandmother. But they are super hard to buy for.

    I'm kind of holding off. Yes, I'm one of those people who are waiting to see if the world ends on the 21st or not.

    In that case put it on the credit card. Hopefully the bill won't come before the 21st. :p

    Now, see, if I did that, with my luck the world would still be here on the 22nd and I'd end up with a $1,000 bill.:(

    The world ending is a luckier outcome than a big credit card bill? :p

    Well, if the world is still here, you're going to have that bill anyway... plus you'll have to deal with all the other idiots who waited to see if the world ended doing last minute shopping along with you.
