Copying Becky...

Christmas Survey.

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?
No eggs, no nog

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?
Santa wrapped presents under the tree and left them unwrapped by the fireplace too...so, both.

3. Colored lights or white lights on tree/house?
I like the old timey colored lights (the HUGE ones) or the plain white. Not tiny colored

4. Do you hang mistletoe?
I once drew a funny picture of a missile with a toe/foot on it for a Christmas party my parents had.

5. When do you put up your decorations?
I'm aiming for after Thanksgiving, but whenever I get to it. Maybe this weekend too.

6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)?
I love Sweet potatoes. And regular potatoes.

7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child:
Getting a scooter for Christmas and getting to try it right away because the sidewalks were cleared.

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?
I really did this to answer this question -- I remember it, because I think that my heart broke. You know me, I'm pretty naive and trusting most of the time.
I was reading the letter that St Nick had left for me. I got a pair of red/black striped gloves and a Thundertube (a sled). I was reading the letter and my mom was on the phone with my dad. I was 8. (I know, pretty old, but hey, I'm an only child). I was reading and all of a sudden I realized that St. Nick had the same handwriting as my dad. I said, "Mom?...Why does St. Nick have the same handwriting as Dad?"...hoping the whole time that she would tell me that I was wrong....So, let that be a lesson to you all! :)

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?
We opened one, then went to my Aunt and Uncles, to church, to my Godparents house, to church again and then home to open the rest of the gifts. Then there were more on Christmas morning.

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?
Formal process of lights, garland, ornaments, tinsel.

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it?
I love it. Most of the time. Not driving in rush hour.

12. Can you ice skate?
I think that I can.

13. Do you remember your favorite gift?
My favorite gift as the Nintendo Miracle Piano. Then I learned the ghetto version of playing the piano. But it was the only piano that my parents would buy -- they wouldn't buy a real one.

14. What's the most important thing about the Holidays for you?
Family. Except I don't ever see my family anymore. That's why my friends become so important. They are my family.

15. What is your fav holiday dessert?
The cookies that my dad makes and we decorate -- so good! I think that it's a Foster recipe.

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition?
Used to be going to my aunt and uncles and godparents, but the last time that I went, it wasn't that great.

17. What tops your tree?
Star

18. Which do you prefer giving or Receiving?
Giving, definitely. I go overboard. Spending money is the only way that I show affection and caring sometimes.

19. What is your favorite Christmas Song?
O Holy Night. Without a doubt. Like to sing it and play it on Harp. Gosh, I miss the harp.

20. Candy Canes! Yuck or Yum?

I also like the fruit flavors -- Cherry. Yummy. :)



I'm in a weird mood tonight. I don't know why. I think it's because Jake is leaving this weekend and I have to stay here, alone. I HATE that. Makes me nervous. And him hunting makes me nervous. I don't want no phone calls. I wish that I didn't have the concert on Saturday night, because I'd be in EC like that. I think that I'm going to try to convince Jake to come up to EC for the Joy of Hastings party. I'll make him take off work for it too. :)

Okay, time for bed. Hope that I won't be in weird mood tomorrow.
