Hey, Matt! I’m just relaxing and chatting with a friend tonight myself. Nothing big. Next week will be crazy enough. I work at a grocery store, and I don’t even want to contemplate what the lines are going to be like by Wednesday.

I had a completely lackadaisical day today. Didn’t do a damn thing.
And you know what? I’m damn proud of it.

Wow, earliest I’ve been in on a SNT.
Trying to listen to an online spiritual show for the next hour, tho, if my connection lets me.

still looking for an explanation for the absense of the Ghost with the Most from the halloween countdown. Maybe work that guy into the advent calendar somehow.

The Santa Clause is on Disney. Barely tolerable because it’s the first one. ABC Family has some old Kathy Ireland movie on…I’ll pass on that.
Cameron T., I did about as much as you today. No complaints…it’s the best way to keep warm.
Anybody else feel like the networks have brought out the Christmas stuff too early? Not even December and we’ve already seen most of the good movies/shows. They’re going to repeating the same stuff even moreso than usual!

I am trying not to watch anything I really like until closer to the real deal. A lot of them are being played several times I hope.
I always try to save A Christmas Story for the 24 hr marathon even though I have the dvd.
I’m deciding on a movie to watch tonight. The husbands at work and the kids are asleep. I’m also going to have a snack of left over rice with lots of soy sauce! Rice is seriously the best food ever!

I should be drinking. Think I’m gonna pour something alcoholic into a cup and watch some TV.
That sounds nice.

YAY…I don’t know what for. I lost my keys today, somewhere within a block radius of my house. I think I got ripped off cause it cost 193 dollars to make a new one.
So, by costly force I too am relaxing at home this evening
The Christmas Story marathon is a bittersweet deal for me. Ever since my sister officially took control of our family’s Christmas Eve dinner several years ago, it’s been nigh impossible to catch a viewing. (The rooms with televisions in her house are strictly kid zones, and good luck trying to tell them to unplug the eighty video game systems so you can watch a movie from 1983.)
I was going to buy a small, flatscreen TV for our bedroom anyway — perhaps I’ll do that next month, but bring it over there to set up in their living room for the Eve. Might be a tad obsessive, but oh well.
i am lucky there. we go to my husband’s mom’s house and since we have no kids, WE are the kids. we get to do whatever we want and she babies us. it’s awesome.
Happy SNT everybody! On my way out for fixings because we’re having Turkey Day tomorrow. Thanks to my roommate going out of town I have liberated my Wii and I’m hoping to hit up some Smash later if I’m not stuck doing prep cleaning all night
I’ve always loved The Santa Clause. Finally saw the second one last year and thought it was passable since they got the original cast plus Juliet from LOST but then I just spent the whole movie making “Charlie” jokes. Don’t think I would brave the third one though.
I don’t think that’s too bad, Matt. That reminds me of something I’ve been meaning to tell you guys about, a few weeks back my mom called me over to see something in a catalog that she thought would be a good gift for my sister. Turned out to be one of those cool replicas of the leg lamp. I was like, hey, awesome, Christmas Story! And she had no idea what I meant. She just thought it was neat!

Just relaxing here too. I have a cold, you see, and do not want to go anywhere. Going to play some Castlevania for awhile.

I will edit a video of a pig slaughter while drinking a Killian’s.

I’ve always wanted to say this: I really love X-E’s Christmas background. It’s so dark and festive.

I made the bf take me to see Twilight today. Movie was like 1/100 as good as the book. Kind of a let-down.
Like ya’ll iv’e done jack squat all day. I said it befor in the last thread, but since everybodies moved on, i’ll say it again. Happy SNT ya’ll! =D If any one here has Mario Kart Wii, i’m on right now. squee4242: I ‘ll be up for some Brawlin later if you need an opponent. Matt: I think iv’e said this before, but even if I have i’ll say it again, get Mario Kart Wii. TRUST ME, it’s EXTREMELY fun!!! It’s also REALLY easy to play. I’d like to race you . I suggest picking that out for Christmas. Or better yet, get it early. =) Just a suggestion.

Around here TBS got changed to Peachtree TV, and it does not play A Christmas Story marathon, it sucks big time. I really really hope someone buys it for me this year. I don’t buy stuff for myself very often so I can’t justify buying it. I would totally bring my own TV to a family function to watch me some Christmas goodness, good call Matt!
The movie I decided on tonight is Uncle Buck, I donno, you just can’t resist a John Hughes movie. Or anything with John Candy!

Kapprika: Thanks! I really was in debate over whether to use it because it’s SO Christmassy and, well, you really can’t be in a hate-Christmas kind of mood and look at a background like this.
Mystie: If it’s an consolation on the vampire fiction front, True Blood has really blossomed into quite a show.
