Christmas MeMe - Sort Of...

Since I've now received this diddy from more than one person I figure I'll take the lazy man's way out and post it here... so the next time I get it I can just send the link ;) No, seriously though, thanks guys for thinking of me :)


****


Welcome to the Christmas edition of getting to know your friends. Okay, here's what you're supposed to do, and try not to be a SCROOGE!!! Just copy (not forward) this entire email and paste into a new e-mail that you can send. Change all the answers so that they apply to you. Then send this to a whole bunch of people you know, INCLUDING the person that sent it to you.


1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Neither. I take the presents to the local hardware store and have them wrapped for me (and yes, sadly, the men down there can wrap better than me!). With the exception being last year when I stupidly tried it anyway...


2. Real tree or Artificial? One tiny little artificial tree my mother gave us years ago. This year though, it may not even come out... I'm still trying to decide...


3. When do you put up the tree? See above.


4. When do you take the tree down? December 26th.


5. Do you like eggnog? Depends on my mood.


6. Favorite gift received as a child? Hmmmm... I honestly have no clue... the only one I can really remember is the burgundy suede bracelet my mother made me one year.


7. Hardest person to buy for? Mr. Waddles. And not because he's gone this year... he truly had everything a man could ask for... love... family... priorities... when it has all fallen together you don't need the material things.


8. Easiest person to buy for? Kidd


9. Do you have a nativity scene? A very simple crystal one.


10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Last year we sent this by email and comments on the various social networks:



This year I'm not sure what or if I'm doing anything... I just haven't gotten that far...


11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? No gift is ever bad if it's given with the right spirit and intent.


12. Favorite Christmas Movie? This. I don't really classify it as a Christmas movie, but it only plays this time of year and my favorite song on it can only be requested this time of year... so that in and of itself will have to make it a Christmas movie.


13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? In July.


14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Yes...


15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Pumpkin pie.


16. Lights on the tree? All white.


17. Favorite Christmas song? Little Drummer Boy.


18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Stay home.


19. Do you shop on Black Friday? Nope. Mostly Cyber Monday... but this year I didn't even think about it.


20. Angel on the tree top or a star? An angel.


21. Do you go all out decorating? I have been known to...


22. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? One present on Christmas Eve.


23. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? The burn out I get from listening to Christmas songs from Halloween until January 1st.


24. Favorite ornament theme or color? My pig ornament collection (you'd have to see it to appreciate it... it's not as tacky as you might imagine...).


25. Favorite for Christmas dinner? Whatever I don't have to cook ;)


26. What do you want for Christmas this year? A speedy conviction.


27. Who is most likely to respond to this? Shan... and probably Teddy if she can put down her new 'baby' long enough ;)
