Oh, Christmas Tree.

I didn’t celebrate the Christmas growing up (after the age of 8 or so), I don’t believe in the Jesus (not even if he appeared to me in glowing vestments), and I think the Consumerism is immoral (even while part of me loves the shiny), but I just bought a house this year and dammit, that calls for a Christmas tree. We bought one this past weekend, with lights and ornaments (who knew ornaments didn’t come with ornament hooks? Not me.), and it currently is holding court in my living room, giving everything a fresh, pine-y, Christmas-y scent. I’ll post some pictures soon, right now I’m off to bed. After I water the tree.

    DUDE! You would so believe in Jesus if he came to you in glowing vestments. I love you, monkey!

    I think I saw Jesus in glowing vestments. Or it could have been the drink. I am becoming a proper pisshead. When in Oz, do as the Aussies do.

    p.s. my mom and i just got the tree for her house today! for once, we stuck to budget we set for ourselves, and within an hour or so, it was even all water’d and light’d and ready for ornaments. she and i have come a long way from the days of yore, when, irritated not to have a man around to do it, she’d snap at her 4′ daughter for not being able to hold the tree straight while she screwed in the stand. ah, christmas spirit.

    and yeah, that thing about hooks-not-included is such a load of crap.
