    I only have 5 more days off this month. I'm not getting out of bed today.

    Well, I will be getting what amounts to an extra paycheck. It's a nice chunk of change. I'm spending the day playing home spa, pedi, hair color and yes...facial! And catching up on American Horror Story.

    The one that irritates me is Feliz Navidad for some reason. Other than that, I LOVE Christmas music.

    I'm more a fan of classical Christmas music than pop.

    People at my store are always pining for me to dye my beard, and I always have the same answer... no.

    I think they're telling you that something died in your beard.

    I wouldn't mind Christmas music so much if it wasn't for the fact I've been listening to some of the same ones for 45 years or more. Triple that with those same songs sung by different artists. 8-}

    In non grinch news, someone has decorated a lone tree on my off ramp. Had to be quite the hike for whoever put up red bows and silver balls on it. Made me smile and will everyday.

    This is where you are wrong. He loves Evan Williams, The Lakers, The Dodgers, Cuban cigars and pina coladas and getting caught in the rain,

    Dyeing the beard wouldn't change that fact, though. :p Speaking of Christmas music, here's a song that you won't hear on the radio. :

    the word grinch makes me think of the act of someone trying to chew food with his/her butthole. *grinch grinch grinch*

    Only when I'm at work. Off the clock, it's the real thing. :

    So far, this ad is the most annoying one I've seen during this Christmas season. :

    You've got my sympathies, Debra. The only thing keeping me sane through out my work days this month are the 2 days off in a row each week (and a likely bonus when we get paid next, which happens next week). And in time for the holidays, the Lakers are off to their worst start in 10 years. 'Tis the season! [face_plain]

    Yeah, sorry, but **** Christmas.

    I wouldn't say that my family was exceptionally dysfunctional, but somehow every year all of our family dysfunction seemed to form a nexus around December 25th, like the eye of some weird hurricane made of anger, resentment, and disappointment that left a trail of the shattered debris of unrealistic expectations in its wake.

    The best Christmas I ever had was in my mid-30s, when something came up that meant I had a rock-solid excuse to be alone in my house - roommate gone and all - for the holiday. I turned my cell phone off, put out some chips and dip and a few bottles of a very nice porter, and watched old MST3K episodes until I fell asleep on the couch. If I had my druthers, that'd be every Christmas.
