It bothers me. But not for the reasons you’re probably thinking. Recently, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” has been in the news because people are suddenly offended by a 74 year old song. People want it banned from radios. Y’all, I’ve been saying for years that the classic holiday song is highly inappropriate. FOR YEARS! And … Continue reading On the 14th Day of Blogmas…

When I was a kid, One Magic Christmas was one of those Christmas movies that we watched all the time. Honestly, I’m not sure why that was. I don’t remember ever thinking that it was such a great movie. But it’s there. All over my family memories of Christmas. It could be because, at one point, we … Continue reading On the 13th Day of Blogmas…

I’m sure by now most of you have heard the Christmas classic “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas.” I say classic because the song is nearly 60 years old. I don’t call it a classic because I enjoy hearing it year after year. I find it to be obnoxious. And irritating. And extremely catchy. Which … Continue reading On the 12th Day of Blogmas…

I know. You just read that title and thought, “This guy’s such a Grinch!” But I’m really not. I love Christmas. I might not get as into the holiday spirit as a lot of people do, but I certainly don’t sit around thinking of ways to ruin Christmas for everyone around me. There are just … Continue reading On the 11th Day of Blogmas…

It almost seems inevitable at this point in history. The ugly Christmas sweater is something that people are proud to own. People throw parties that put this article of clothing at the center of the gathering. People compete over who has the ugliest Christmas sweater. It’s a point of pride for someone to walk away … Continue reading On the 10th Day of Blogmas…

Yesterday's post may have come off a little harsh. I didn't mean for it to... I mean, if it did come off as harsh. I haven't heard any negative feedback from family. So that either means no one in my family has read yesterday's post or they've read it and no one cares what I … Continue reading On the 9th Day of Blogmas…

I may have shared this here before. And if I have, if you could just pretend like you're seeing it for the first time, that'd be great. Okay? Thanks. Several years back, I got it in my head that I could easily mimic the voices of most of the line-up of Muppets, including but certainly … Continue reading On the 7th Day of Blogmas…

Confession: My tree wasn't complete when I showed it off last week. It is complete now. I got a tree skirt and a ribbon to wrap around it. Also, if you're an eagle-eyed reader and can spot one of two new ornaments I placed on the tree, you get bonus points. Not sure what those … Continue reading On the 6th Day of Blogmas…
