Christmas relaxing
12.07.2005

Today it was finally "really" cold for Austin, and it's only 26 degrees right now. I guess the chill really put me in a Christmas relaxing mood, so I kicked back with a pipe and hot tea (and brandy later) and watched three Christmas DVDs in a row! First I watched Rankin Bass' Santa Claus is Comin' to Town, with all the great songs and the hilarious Burgermeister Meisterburger (and I always crack up when Kris says "I'm a man now!" in his lumberjack outfit). Next was The Nightmare Before Christmas, which I usually watch on Halloween, but this year I saved it for Christmas. I'm always amazed at just what a great story it is, and I love Sally's sad love song. I finished with The Santa Clause, which has become one of my favorites, even though I'm not a huge Tim Allen fan. Once again, it's just a great modern Christmas tale, and I like how all the kids just "know" he's Santa. Oh, and earlier this week I watched Rankin Bass' Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, of course! (Actually, I don't think there's anything misfit about a water pistol that shoots jelly.) I still have a stack of Christmas DVDs to watch by the end of next week, before I go to my personal Christmas wonderland with Mom & Dad in Oklahoma City!
