I am watching last night's episode of Criminal Minds and am being totally freaked out by Jason Alexander (from Seinfeld, not Britney's first hubby) costumed in a white suit and a grey long haired wig. It's like Colonel Sanders gone horribly wrong...
Snarked from
soney and
msdna.
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping paper with tons and tons of scotch tape.
2. Real tree or Artificial? Artificial - all those dropping needles would drive me insane.
3. When do you put up the tree? Thanksgiving afternoon (much to the fella's dismay.)
4. When do you take the tree down? Whenever we get around to it. Mid-January maybe?
5. Do you like eggnog? *yuk*
6. Favorite gift received as a child. Roller skates when I was 10.
7. Hardest person to buy for? My dad - he's got everything he needs and never asks for anything.
8. Easiest person to buy for? The boy...at least for the time being.
9. Do you have a nativity scene? Yes - Kim Anderson porcelain figurines. The Baby Jesus is a doll with a wig who sleeps in an old-fashioned suitcase.
10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail.
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? Hmmm... I must have blocked them all out.
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Nightmare Before Christmas.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? I pick up things throughout the year if I see something I think a person would like. (Except for this year - I'm shopping for my side of the family down under!!)
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Of course not. *wink wink*
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? It used to be the puppy chow that my sister would make. Now I can't touch the stuff.
16. Lights on the tree? The tree we bought for this house is pre-lit.
17. Favorite Christmas song? Oh, the weather outside is frightful... :)
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? All of my family lives within a 15 mile radius, but this year we're traveling internationally to spend the holidays with the fella's family. Christmas on a beach in Australia - WOO HOO!!
19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? Sleepy, Dopey, Happy, Sneezy, Bashful, Grumpy and Doc. :)
20. Angel on the tree top or a star? Star
21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? Christmas morning.
22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? Noxious people at the stores. Especially those people who park their carts in the middle of the aisle and then wander off, but who get offended when you ask to move their cart.
23. Favorite ornament theme or color? I'm into snowmen - you can leave them up through January with no worries!
24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? Turkey. Mmmmmmm, turkey.
25. What do you want for Christmas this year? For the boy to travel down under okay, for a relaxing time while in country, to not gain a ton of weight while on holiday, and for a better 2009 on all fronts. Oh yeah, and a pair of dark chocolate brown mid-length Uggs.
