So here it is, just two weeks until Christmas, and my Christmas Spirit? As Yukon Cornelious (pictured above) would say, "Nothin!" Every time I think of a good spot for a Christmas tree, and this is always in the middle of the night after many beers, the next day I look there and think, "No, that would be stupid." My husband called from the grocery store Monday night and said, "Can you think of anything else I should get?" I said, "Yeah, grab a bottle of Christmas Spirit." He said, "Yeah, no kidding." I said, "Yeah, make it TWO." (We always start our sentences with "yeah.")

I was thinking about all of this Sunday night or Monday or whenever and came up with a great idea. I can get a large pumpkin, carve four-leaf clovers and hearts on it, fill it with colored eggs, stick little American flags on top and mount it on a post with colored lights and a big red bow. That should take care of EVERYTHING!!!

I like that idea. I have no Christmas spirit either. Never do really. I guess I'm just not a Christmassy person.
Jazz,
~~The strange thing is I've always been a Christmas fanatic. We even got married in front of a Christmas tree. I can't figure it out.
What about Cinco de Mayo? Pour some tequila inside and you're set.
I am SO SURE you should carve that pumpkin and then blog pictures.
I, personally, would LOVE that!
I want to get into the spirit, too, but it's not happening...yet. Tell your husband to grab me a bottle and ship it down C.O.D. while he's out.
Is the Texan "yeah" at the beginning of a sentence like the Canadian "Eh?" at the end?
Geewits, come to work in our office. We're all eating booze-filled chocolates.
The Christmas spirit is starting to flow...
Cheers (hic)

Mike,
~~If I pour the tequila it will be in a glass with ornage juice and grenadine.
Tai,
~~Maybe next Ocotber I'll make an all-purpose holiday pumpkin. Why not?
Scarlet,
~~I wish they COULD bottle it!
Big Brother,
~~It's not a Texas thing. We stole it from Michael Rapaport "a true New Yorker through and through," when he said a line on "Friends." He said (in a thick New York accent), "Yeah, I'm gonna say no." It was a great line and we loved it and ...
Josie,
~~Eeeeew! You said, "come to work." I could visit, but no working!
Someone should invent pumpkins costumes like they have for geese. We could all have carved foam pumpkins and just deck 'em out all year 'round, a version of Mr. Potato Head, if you will. :D
