Twenty two sleeps to go/Twenty two sleeps til /Twenty two sleeps 'til the big fat fella/Comes down your chimney and gives you presents and drinks your beer... as Polly sang on 91ZM this morning. What a shock! But we've had *2* count 'em, two Christmas cards. The sun is shining, the cars and trucks are roaring, and we're getting a driveway, want it or not. Cos the driveway $$$ in the budget haven't been spent, is why. Go figure!
Tomorrow, I have a job interview at Auckland Girls' Grammar, for a teacher aide job. Woo hoo! ESW-ing hasn't been that big of a success... though the ESW Christmas party is on Friday. Won't *that* be fun?
The year is ending (how *dare* it? Summer has only just got here...)
There is still a war in Iraq, even if Dubya and 'friends' choose not to call it that.
What's that about 'plus meme chose' and staying the same?

Argh! I need to start buying prezzies!

Hey you two,

If you 'hate christmas' why don't you celebrate christ's birth on March 7th and give us our solstice back?

Blessings,

I don't hate it because of the time (thought that's part of it), but because of how expensive it is!

I don't care if I send 'em Christmas presents or Stolen Pagan Solstice presents, it still costs me a fair few bob!

Matholwch, what made you think I hate Christmas? It's just that it snuck up on me... Yes, I know that the Christian Christmas was a pagan holiday that got tooken over, we all know that. But it's a family thing as well, primarily now - and most of my family is distant geographically, which makes it awkward...

hi Della,

Justin just sent me over here from my Christmassy thread. He says he is the grinch! I don't believe it at all. Anyhow, pop over if you like . . .
