Christmas is funny. the time with family and friends (lots of extra hanging and partying etc.) is great.

The consuming is definitely the weirdest part. I am barely involved. Minimal gifts etc. but there is still
a weird anxiety, pressure...call it what you will. Also, in my urban, last minute way I never seem to
get involved enough in charitable giving etc.

Obviously good to remember year round but...

Having my new Cd is really cool. I just got the boxes and I am trying to get copies to few friends etc.
in the neighbourhood. That part of giving is really fun for me!!!

Merry Christmas all you bloggers!
