Christmas Eve, 2005.

Merry Christmas to all. I've gotta go stuff mushrooms and drizzle liquid death over rapidly heating Chex Mix. Thanks for being a part of X-E's nearly-finished 2005 Christmas celebration. May Santa bring you all the best.

4th post!! I mean um ‘ahem’ Merry Christmas! I am going to eat pizza w/ my family later and the aunt that won’t be at my christmas is coming tonight. Sweet. Nothing like greasy fingers opening presents.

My celebration technically already started last night at my great aunt’s big family Christmas party. She met my boyfriend for the first time and everybody got along great (my aunt even said my boyfriend is cute!).

I’m a little sad because the boyfriend just took off to go visit his parents. He’s only 20 minutes away, and he’ll be home this evening, and I’m used to being away from him for long days while he’s at work, so I actually have no idea why I’m sad. I guess Christmas is making me a little emotional.

On the upside, we seem to have more presents under the tree this year than any previous year, so I’m pretty excited about that.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Although my schedule is just too busy normally to allow me to post, I thought I would give a quick Merry Christmas (that’s right, Christmas) to everybody who probably enjoyed the advent calendar as much as I.

And I have to say Matt, based on the story arc, you’ve turned into a bit of a Romantic. Hmmm…does your lady know of this?

You know, it only happened because LEGO gave me the bar/glasses set.

Also, good to hear from you, Sean! Speaking of my lady, she still asks me to ask "that guy from the blog" whenever our fish act up.

Merry Christmas Matt. Thanks for adding fun to my December year after year. I’ll be looking forward to our traditional Christmas Eve here at our house.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Happy Xmas everybody! This has been the best X-E holiday season yet and that’s no small potatoes. Everyone have a safe and wonderful holiday.

Once again, I’m here at work, wrapping gifts and waiting for Little Brother to get here from Kansas. Happy Decemberween Eve kids!
I guess now we know why there is always a new Santa in each Advent, the shelf life of each one is kinda sucky.

A toast to the Advent Calender, X-E and Christmas in general.

*Chugs.

Chestnuts roasted by Warx @ 12/24/2005 7:42 PM

yup, merry christmas to everyone here and specially to Kuse, Knacks and Mare (ok, and Legotron).
May heaven embrace their plastic souls to the halls where the gods of Lego and Playmobile dance and laugh together while plotting the next year calendars daring each other to see who can get an advent with toys even less conected to the christmass topic.

Best advent ever, matt! Cheers for that! Happy holidays everyone…

Anyone catch the Garfield Christmas special?

Chestnuts roasted by Crocop @ 12/24/2005 8:15 PM

Matt.

I’m 15. I’ve been reading X-E for almost four years. I can remember reading your articles in computer class in sixth grade. Every year you make this site special for Christmas. X-E is now a HUGE part of my Christmas, and I hope it stays that way.

The thing is, this year feels different.

I don’t know what it is. Christmas feels so dull this year. It snuck up on me, and I can’t believe it.

I’ve seen the presents under the tree, the lights on so many lawns, the colors and bows on the cereal boxes, and the Charlie Brown Christmas specials. But still, it feels so unlike Christmas.

I still love Christmas, and the spirit of it. I love seeing the huge mall Santa displays, seeing the snow and the lights in Boston, when I go, and the look on my little brother’s face on Christmas morning. It’s amazing.

I was so afraid that you wouldn’t pull through this year with the Christmassy spirit. You’ve told us all about how busy you are, and that scares me. I don’t want you to move on, to forget about the site. Yet, you did pull through. It’s not as fancy as years past, but as time allows, it’s great.

I don’t know why it feels like this this year. The political correctness has gotten me a bit depressed this winter. The big annual Christmas tree in Boston is being called a "Holiday tree" from now on, and face it, what other holiday has a damned fir tree? And it’s not a matter of IF they’re going to re-name Christmas Crunch, it’s a matter of WHEN. This generation is falling prey to a mixture of PC idiocy and corporate greed.

And Christmas still means so much to me, and always will. I know you’ll understand, Matt. I know you will.

So what did the Lego calander spit out today?

Chestnuts roasted by Jeff @ 12/24/2005 9:06 PM

Tonight’s the night to watch Gremlins and Scrooged.
Oh yeah.
