It’s Fucking Christmas
Okay, time to stop using this thing as a venting ground. I’m happy most of the time, but I only post here if I’m feeling down. And that’s bullshit. I need to stop only posting here when I’m having a spurt of sadness b/c then everybody’ll think that’s how I am all the time. It’s Christmastime, I’m at my happiest at this time of year. And one thing that really brings me happiness is CHRISTMAS SPECIALS THAT DON’T AIR ANYMORE WOOOOOOOOOO!!!
My absolute favorite Christmas special is Jim Henson’s The Christmas Toy. Y’know, the one with the stuffed tiger named Rugby who didn’t understand the meaning of Christmas. I watch it every year on Christmas Eve. It gets me misty-eyed everytime, especially that part where we think Mew the mouse has been frozen forever ;_; And Rugby sings something like “Old friend, dear friend, friend who has gone away. I want to tell you *sniff* I love you.” OMG, I got goosebumps just writing that, gets me every time. It’s a really sweet special. If you haven’t seen it, it’s actually on YouTube now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hDQE2wGmGM But I prefer my 1987 VHS tape with the Kraft commercials. During the commercials, this guy would give you Kraft Holiday recipes. They were really disgusting actually. I think there was one recipe where you mix cheese with brown sugar or some shit, I dunno. But I have fond memories of those commercials regardless. I love the jingle too: Celebrate the Season with Kraft. Classic
I have lots of other Christmas specials I love too. Here are some of my all time favorites (excluding The Christmas Toy):
Nestor the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey
A Muppet Family Christmas
Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas
Christmas Eve on Sesame Street
Pee-Wee’s Christmas Special
The Little Drummer Boy

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (of course)
Ghostbusters Christmas: X-Mas Marks the Spot (it is SO ridiculous, my next post will be a review of this)
Noel

I KNOW I’m forgetting something, but that’s all I can think of for nowl.
And on an unrelated note, my god it’s 1 AM and the snow plows are going crazy (got quite a bit of snow today and it’s still going strong.) Dang, I’m going to bed now, g’night guys ^_^
