Mother Nature has finally gotten the hint that it's nearly Christmas, and it was 18 degrees this morning, following a week of a temperatures in the sixties. I'm jealous of all the other people in the country who are getting blizzards. What do I have to do to get some damn snow?
Going to church yesterday was fine. It was simply the Christmas program, so little kids in costumes and people singing, no sermon, thank God (ha ha). I made jokes that should I go up in flames upon entering the church, my sister should be prepared to spit on me, but I escaped unscathed. Alli and I of course sat together and whispered to each other the whole time, because we are totally mature. During the service I remembered that when I was in the Christmas play in kindergarten, I was an angel, and my halo fell off during the program. There's some real symbolism in that.
Nathan got a remote control Thomas train, and he was thrilled (he's absolutely obsessed with trains). I've used the train to torture our cats. One of them will walk up to it, and I'll hit the button to make it move, and they will freak the fuck out. It's endlessly entertaining how frightened they are of this cheerful little blue train, which whistles a merry tune as it roams the floor.
Nathan also got another set of Little People, which he loves. We have two that look the same, so I've decided that one of them must be evil (because that's how it works on Days of Our Lives). Thus, we have Evil Bobby and Good Bobby. Yesterday Nathan got another Tyrese, and he's evil too. He's holding a handful of carrots (random, I know) and also a bag, and Stephen and I say that he's a dealer. "Hey man, you want some carrots? They'll make you feel real good." What can I say, we have problems.
The Panthers lost last night, but it was a good game, so I'm still proud of them. And of course my Tar Heels are still rolling along at number one, so no problems there. I was excited when Tyler Hansbrough broke Phil Ford's scoring record for UNC. Hansbrough is an amazing player, and he deserves everything he's earned. Let's hope he'll earn a NCAA championship in April.
