Tell Me

I just really, really love this song.

A Christmas Date

With Christmas coming up, Charlie, a good friend of mine, and myself were talking about our idea of a perfect date. Let's just say we ended up with quite a few good ones, but my favorite consisted of being around Christmastime. The date was walking around downtown, or a fancy neighborhood, arm in arm enjoying all the beautiful Christmas lights, with maybe a cup of hot chocolate in hand. To make it even more perfect, the snow would be falling gently in great big flakes. Sadly, I'll have to wait until I have a "special someone" to go on such a wonderful date like this. But I know the wait will be worth it. 

Just five more days! Yesterday and today I braved the crowds and got the majority of my Christmas shopping done. Only two more gifts to go! I have this tiny little Christmas tree in my room that I bought and decorated myself, and my gifts are brightly wrapped underneath. Then lets not forget about the hordes of presents hiding under my bed/in my closet. (Well, not exactly hordes, but there are quite a few). I just love this time of year! And I love telling random strangers "Merry Christmas." It just seems to brighten any day.  What about you? What's your favorite thing about Christmas?
