Yesterday, I went out to buy some Christmas party items along with hauling Vero and Eric out to pick up a Christmas tree up the road.
Let me tell you something…in the city, you don’t get the Charlie Brown Christmas trees that you find in the woods. These are full fledged genetically produced perfecto Christmas trees. I was thinking “I don’t deserve this as my first tree!”. Anyhow, after some clever engineering, the tree was up with some great lights. I am in the total Christmas zone now.
Dad mentioned that I should water the hell out of this thing and he wasn’t kidding. I put some water in last night, and when I woke up, there was not a drop left in it. The good thing is that the tree is starting to smell like one. Maybe it needs water to have the pine smell.
For the rest of the week – mail out more Christmas cards, pick up Christmas party necessities, and pick up Maureen at 7:30 on Saturday morning. I better remember that little ditty.

Ryan, it sounds like your party is going to be the bomb. I wish we could be there.
Ryan, I’m so sad that we’ll miss your party but at least we’ll have you in our luggage! BTW, who’s hosting your party?
haha
Vero. Even if I end up going, she’s still going to be hosting it.
Are you watering your tree with Twist?
Twist is probably the right amount of sugar and water!
