Holy Christmas it’s Almost Crap!

I would like to express my displeasure with the fact that Christmas is creeping up on me. I have no problems hearing carols over the radio at Au Bon Pain. I see no issue with the twinkly lights hanging from the posts and doors all around my neighborhood. I don’t even hold anger against those who have finished their Christmas shopping in advance.

Just…

I’m not ready.

I haven’t assigned my Christmas carols to my iPod. I haven’t got a tree. I haven’t started Christmas cards*, and I moved this year so I should be doing those early.

However, yesterday was a Christmas-friendly day. I finished shopping for one person on my list. We bought pretty wrapping paper and ribbons and bows. I hung lights off of our posts out front of our apartment. We even went to get outdoor extension cords so that our house won’t burn down.

So, I guess I’m approaching the state of ready to be ready.

I wonder when I’ll actually do the shopping.

At least I know that part of the week after Christmas will be spent on snow-covered slopes.

Have I mentioned that I’m excited about snowboarding? If not, I should. I should very often.

*Hello friends. I keep meaning to be one of those people who actually sends cards to their friends and not just family. Encourage this behavior. Email me your snail-mail address. Yes, even if you think I know it. I don’t. Trust me.

    Speaking of Christmas… I need to get you a Christmas present. If you could compile a list of things you might want it would be SUPER helpful!!!
