Sometimes I think I stopped Maturing at age 8
Or at least a part of me did. I get excited about things like a little kid. I can't sleep for a week before I go on vacation. I would give anything to go to Disneyland once a year. I love, I mean LOVE, Christmas. I even love the commercialization of it. I love the presents, the TV shows (yes, I watched Rudolph last night, how depressing is that story anyway!); I listen to the music, set up a tree, and decorate my 400 sf apartment. I love thounder and lightning storms, snow, hail, and wind storms.
Today, it is snowing in Seattle. I can't concentrate. My neck is getting sore because I keep turning around to look out the window. I want to run outside and play with my dog. A few days ago when they said it would snow, I woke up every couple of hours to look outside to see if it had started yet (it never started, in fact when I looked outside, it was clear and starry). I think my love for the snow is even greater because growing up in Fresno (you know), it only snowed like 5 times in my whole life.
So yes, I'm like a little kid. I can't sit still in my seat. I got to eat the first chocolate out of my advent calendar today, yay!! My friend Maria brought it back all the way from Germany.

You are a sick little monkey....
Christmas, blech!
Snow, blech!
Advent, blech!
You can have it.
Bah Humbug.
I do agree that we should all go to one great amusement park at least once a year.

Snow! I bet it is wonderful. It hardly snows here or gets cold enough for a sweater. I love Christmas too. I am not sure if I get to put lights on the house this year due to needing a new roof because of the hurricane.
I had one of those advent calendar when I was in kindergarten, they are cool.
I've never been to Disneyland but plan to go when Itty Bitty gets old enough.

I almost bought an advent calendar yesterday at Trader Joes... I should have...
And, darling, I'm sorry… but Disneyland?!?
mass quantities of children + tourists = hell (NOT the happiest) place on earth
just sayin'

I know, I know. But if you go in the middle of the week sometimes it's pretty empty. When I lived in cali I would go probably every other year or so and most of the time there wouldn't be any waits in the lines but one year I went on Valetine's Day and that was a freakin' nightmare.

Come to Michigan! All the snow you can eat! (That's a joke, it's all toxic, but it sure is purdy!)
