Merry Christmas
The laziness factor is at an all time high today, exactly where I wanted it to be and a Merry Christmas indeed was achieved. Am still wearing the sweatpants and sweatshirt I put on when I woke up this morning. Yup, that means I didn’t shower yet either…don’t you just love the holidays.
We finally joined the rest of the world this afternoon by watching the movie “The Hangover.” Oh my god, hilarious. Loved it! Made me want to get in the car and drive to Vegas immediately. I giggled, (yes giggled) my way through the whole movie. It had a low budget, independent feel which I love. Low production = fantastic acting in my books and it was certainly the case for ‘The Hangover,’ even the baby rocked a solid performance. Here is the trailer if you want to check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XB0pGnzsAZI
Anyway, after the movie we ate a traditional turkey dinner while listening to a wicked iTunes genius list full of Ben Harper (yes, I’m still obsessing over him), Jack Johnson, Damien Rice, Eddie Vedder, Coldplay Dave Matthews Band and a few others….very chill, very perfect on this festive day. Listening to mellow, melancholy songs like that always cause me to think about stuff. Today I couldn’t help but think how lucky am I for the life I have.
Christmas is a time to think of others who have less than you. Let’s try to keep the spirit going all year round. It’s easy to forget about the less fortunate when your holidays end and you head back to work, but the hardships of others last all year. If you can, remember to help your fellow neighbors when they are in need no matter what day of the year it may be. You’ll feel good about it, I promise you.
Also remember to think of our servicemen/women and veterans who have served and continue to serve to protect the quality of life we all enjoy. We all may not agree with wars and everything that goes with them, but I think we can all agree on peace.
I wish you and your families, whether you are in the same room or across the Country, a fantastic holiday season full of laughter, love, wonder and peace.
Merry Christmas!
