Merry Christmas Eve IV

Christ, I've spent four Christmases on the belt! Who would've thought it!

Well, here it is again, the Christmas Eve thread. At a time like this, I think back to the words of the Prophet, Cliff Richard:

Its a time for giving, a time for getting, a time for forgiving and for forgetting. Christmas is love, Christmas is peace, a time for hating and fighting to cease.

And of course, the words of that greater prophet:

We're no strangers to love, you know the rules and so do I! A full commitment's what I'm thinking of! You wouldn't get this from any other guy! I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling! Gotta make you understand.

Merry Christmas, guys :)

    I'm excited :) I woke up at like 2:45 at my uncle's house since I'm house sitting, and my mom called and told me it was snowing. I was like "Oh, cool" and figured it would be super lame snow that doesn't count.

    I looked outside an hour later, everything's covered in a nice little blanket of white! It's nothing too extreme, I drove home just fine, but it's still a nice thing to have Christmas time.

    Merry Christmas!

    As always our roads are icy here in Idaho. Not as much snow or ice as normal though.

    My back hurts for some reason! I'm on the interbutts right now wasting time, but at 11:15 I'm going to a midnight mass. The company is nice. I'm old.

    I'm having a pretty good Christmas so far! I get to work and my coworkers got me a stuffed animal and a coin bank shaped like a realistic looking bowl of noodles. And my friends in Hong Kong mailed me a gingerbread man. And my grandma mailed me cookies that are waiting for me in the post office! Going to go get those during lunch!

    Merry Christmas all! Some nice snow. We built a bit of a ramp out of snow here running down some stairs and did a bit of sledding. Also, a 7-foot snowman (About 2.2 meters for the non-imperialists).

    Entirely too much of my Christmas was spent driving. It was still nice though, and I hope you all had just as good, if not better Christmases.

    It's that time of eve again! Folks are probably starting to head out of town right about now, headed toward the Internetless wastelands that are our parents' homes, so I thought I'd drop in to wish everyone a quick happy holiday weekend.

    Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen (of Dr. Horrible-creating fame) wanna sing you somethin'!

    My parent's home is not an internetless wasteland. It's a good thing.

    I spent Christmas Eve at a bar with coworkers. It was an old manufacturing factory redesigned as a bar. I went to the bathroom and was peeing into a pipe until I started to wonder if it was a themed urinal or just some random place I started to pee in. But then other people started peeing in the pipes near me, so it was okay.

    Also, a lot of people got sick and vomitted tonight. I learned that a lot of Chinese guys like to eat instant noodles before going out drinking. Good to know.

    Sounds like fun, confusing bathroom aside.

    Merry Christmas!

    So far it is mercifully cool. Here's hoping it stays this way all day to maximise my eating vast amounts of roast dinner efficiencey.

    Beer is on ice, just in case.

    I love Christmas.
