I feel sheepish admitting this, but I'm always kind of glad when Thanksgiving is over because I can finally unabashedly throw myself into the Christmas season. Hooray! Christmas, I am all yours now!!

We ventured out for a little Black Friday action this year - something I've never done in person before. Last year I did the online Black Friday shopping, but that extra something special was missing: the personal touch of human contact as you get in a fistfight over a 50 buck blu-ray player. (*disclaimer: I did not buy a blu-ray player, and no, Husband, this post in no way gives away your present. You can't drag it out of me, so stop trying).

So now we're at the inlaws' in KY, permanently ensconced in PJ's, parked in front of the fireplace enjoying The Karate Kid in HD on the sweet flatscreen. Jack and Sam and I are sick, but there's no cozier place to convalesce than here.

You know, this year I felt exactly the same way about Thanksgiving--I was just itching to be able to legitimately do all things related to Christmas! So the next day was cookie baking, Christmas songs, and Christmas movies.

Yes, but Christmas and Thanksgiving are one (just like Billy and I are together, but not like that) because Christmas starts when you see Santa Claus in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, so it's Christmas even while you eat Thanksgiving dinner. Maybe this is where we get the phrase "eat your cake and have it too" only maybe it was originally "pie" but people changed it because they thought it sounded dirty the other way. Speaking of dirty, I was thinking about getting Loreena McKennitt's new Christmas album on iTunes, but all of the songs say "clean" and if there's a dirty version of the Coventry Carol and Good Kind Wenceslas I want to hear it!

of course I meant "Good King Wenceslas" I was just too excited.
