Edit

So that politically correct thing didn't work out. I did have a great Christmas though; one can never go wrong with helping the poor and then spending time with family.
I also took the time to get some Chris Botti CDs, given my keen interest for a while. Got 'December' from iTunes and found 'A Thousand Kisses Deep' and 'To Love Again' for $9.99 each at Best Buy, so of course I splurged a bit. If you didn't know, Chris Botti is a jazz trumpet player, and he is AMAZING. His sound is smooth and velvety, and his music is always emotional stuff. His duets in 'To Love Again' are all fantastic.
Also introduced to myself via blind grab-and-buy at Border's to Third Eye Blind. Pretty mainstream sound, but they really don't try to be anything else, which you've got to respect them for. Still, some of their lyrics are pretty stupid.
Also got a bunch of musical recordings I have yet to listen to, such as Funny Girl, A Class Act, Spring Awakening and Hello, Dolly!. Thank goodness I have a break.
Happy Holiday Season to you all, once again.

'Tis The Season

Happy Holiday Season, all (I like to be politically correct: it makes me feel important).

I mean, Christmas is great and all, but what about the other holidays? Hannukah, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day... they all have their own cultural importance and history.

Which is why I thought this week's episode of Community was so great- a confluence of traditions at Shirley's former Christmas-only party (also, epic fight scene).
So- this holiday season, as the holidays come and go, I will blog about them (it's my excuse to blog- because I love you guys!).

Also, I recommend some of my secular and non-secular seasonal favorites:
December-Chris Botti
Let It Snow!-Michael Buble
A Merry Affair-Various Artists

Happy Holiday Season, everyone.
