Merry, Merry Christmas.

(I broke tradition and didn't use a song title!)

But.

Merry, Merry, Happy Happy

Christmas.

And yes,

A lovely New Year, too.

And I hope you all were simply delighted with your festivities and whatnot,

And I hope your families didn't drive you insane,

And that you got what you wanted,

Whether it was hope, joy, snow, family,

Or maybe an Xbox or something.

My family.

Is the best ever.

I absolutely love spending Christmas with them.

No joke, either.

They're just a hilarious bunch of nutjobs,

I think I have the only family that makes inappropriate penis jokes on Christmas.

I also think I have the only grandma who walks around in a santa hat with "cranberry juice" in one hand.

We're a jolly bunch of weirdos, I assure you.

And it's simply fantastic that we get to spend an entire day together being nuts.

I love the holidays.

And guess what!

Another Christmas tomorrow! :D

With the less psychotic side of the family,

After an in-car.

Yeah, the latter I'm not so thrilled about,

But.

So be it.

It'll all be worth it.

And I'm going to be really snooty and mention what I received from "Santa"...

Gibson

Les Paul

Standard.

That is one heck of a guitar.

Now,

I just need to figure out exactly how you get the amp to not sound like a dying thing.

I'm very bad with electronics...

Also.

I now have a unicorn pillow pet.

Yes.

And so I hope you all had fun,

Ate a bunch of food,

Laughed an awful lot,

Hugged a bunch of your family,

And then sang some merry carols.

Peace on Earth,

Good will towards all.

Goodnight, on this beautiful white Christmas.
