Light it up yo.

Hey all Ya'll,

So after the darkness of yesterday, today I could really use some lightheartedness or I just may seize. For those of you who made it through my verbal vomit last night, I applaud you on your patience. 12/9/10 definitely a full circle day, thanks all you Guys and Gals that showed me the love...

So light huh???? Hmm I know, how about the Beloved Christmas Tree???  Yeah let's discuss... So my BF Mary and I have a pissing contest on the walls of facebook every holiday season concerning the ole Xmas tree, she apparently is living the Wonderful life while I am the Grinch. So not true, but you'd assume so by our comments...

Here's my issue, she puts her damn tree up mid-October and it stays the focal point in her house til like Easter. Whatever it's her house. My problem is that she puts a photo of her God damned Christmas tree as her status picture on Facebook and even though it is just a social network, it is the way I get to see my best friends face dailyyy. I have my own sparkly tree, show me some bosom and shifty up to no good eyes  for the Love of God. Spread the seasonal Spirit Mirm, show a BF some face. Christams trees are everywhere!!!

I will admit, because I am NOT a Scrooge, that I am bedazzled all the lights and driving at night is now hazardous, cause FYI, not paying attention to the road at all...It's the window trees I like the best. The ones where you see them just enough to sort of make out it's flavor. Like the old school balsam fir with white lights and and cranberry garland. Or the identity crisis tree that is spazzed out in a thousand different colors and bulb sizes and blinks in some seizure inducing pattern with garland suffocating every ounce of green. Or the crazy cat lady tree, donned only in lights and every breed of cat known to man, even Garfield. I love it, the assessing and the assuming and the story telling that is induced by the visual wonder... I say to myself, leaning forward over the steering wheel, peering,what is going on in that house???

Well what I hope is going on, is a lot of freaking celebrating. And my vote, (yes Mary yes) is that celebratory giddiness is always better and hotter in the glow of twinkly lights. Lets face it, twinkly Xmas tree lighting is very forgiving to dark circles and crows feet. So yeah tree it up friends.

I do LOVE Christmas.

And for the record my tree is fake as shit sparkly white and disco.

Ha, don't you wonder what the hell is going on in my house now??
