Get behind me, Santa.

For Christmas this year, I received:

Bacon Wallet
Bacon Wallet
  • Bacon Wallet (from mother and father)
  • Bacon adhesive bandages (from mother and father)
  • Superman: The Dailies 1939 - 1942 (from mother and father)
  • Moleskine journals (from elizabeth)
  • A photo album (from elizabeth)
  • The Man Who Fell To Earth: Criterion Collection (from elizabeth)
  • Monty Python's Life Of Brian: Criterion Collection (from elizabeth)
Every year, I bemoan the getting of gifts. I am bad at it. "Christmas would be so much better without the politically charged exchange of material goods," I caterwaul. But these gifts, each so awesome, lead me to reconsider my entire approach.


My Top Six Christmas Songs:

  1. Blue Christmas - Elvis Presley
  2. A Charlie Brown Christmas  - The Vince Guaraldi Trio (I am aware that I have immediately broken the parameters that I, myself, established not three lines above by naming an album instead of a song. I do not care.)
  3. Christmas On The Moon - Troy Hess
  4. Christmas Party - The Walkmen
  5. Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis - Tom Waits
  6. The Christians & The Pagans - Dar Williams

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY JESUS!

I hadn't thought about "The Christians And The Pagans" in years. Great song and I've just imported it to make sure it makes the Xmas playlists next year. I'll have to check out some of these others too. See you for post-Xmas vurrry soon.
