Well hellooooooooo

"But I don't want good and I don't want good enough,

I want can't sleep, can't breathe without your love

Front porch and one more kiss, it doesn't make sense to anybody else

Who cares if you're all I think about,

I've searched the world and I know now,

It ain't right if you ain't lost your mind.

Yean I don't want easy, I want crazy.

Are you with me baby? Let's be crazy."

~~I Want Crazy || Hunter Hayes

Wazzup, guys!?

BOOYAH! I'M BACK! My laptop is home again and running like new, so my life is happy and complete. *confetti*

Soooooo.

Weird. I have completely forgotten what I was going to blog about tonight. Think... Think, think, think....think, think...

Oh yeah!

FIVE RANDOM FACTS:

1.) I have had a lovely week and a half. Some of my family is out of town and I have gotten the house to myself quite a bit.... you know what that means? Singing. Loads of singing. At the top of my lungs, high as I can go. I love it when I can do that. It's funnnn.

2.) Two words: Hunter Hayes. Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnng. He's awesome! He sings and plays instruments! And he looks like Jeremy Renner! What's not to love!?

Here. Listen to these. Do it. You know you want to. 

(the song doesn't actually start until about 45 seconds into it)

Yeah. He's pretty awesome.

3.) A couple of my sisters and I are learning how to use guns! It's exciting! Guns are cool. *nods* The only thing is... Now... I notice in movie when people hold their guns wrong. You have no idea how irritating it is. I'll be watching something and be like, "OOOOOOOH. The cop is holding it wrong. For shame!"

THIS

NOT THIS

And then I stare at the screen in something resembling horror, wondering if anyone else notices.

3.) I love White Collar. (couple of episodes with bad scenes. Grrrr. But other than those, it's really clean and hilarious.)

4.) I watched Premium Rush, the other day. I really, really enjoyed it. But I wouldn't recommend it if you don't like swearing. There was a crud load of swearing.

5.) I think Matt Smith leaving Doctor Who is the saddest thing I've heard in a long time. I was hoping for at least a whole season with he and Clara! And he's leaving after the Christmas Special! *sniffle* So much sad.

So anyway, I just wanted to pop by and let you all know that I'm back because... I don't know why. Just because. And now I really must get going....

Things to do.

Worlds to conquer.

Hair to brush.

Sleep to get.

*Snores*

Ciao!

St. Nicholas Day and otherness.....

Hippy Happy Saint Nicholas Day!

A couple random things you may not have known about Saint Nicholas: 

1.) He was... real. 

2.) He delivered a blow to the face of the heretic Arius during the First Council of Nicaea. 

3.) He had barely grazed five feet in height. 

4.) He was a Catholic bishop. 

5.) His nose was broken. 

6.) He is also known as Father Christmas.

Be honest.... that makes Santa Claus way cooler now, doesn't it?!! *Smirk*

There is a tradition that we celebrate, in which the dear wee Saint visits good children's homes and leaves surprises in their shoes. (I'm fairly sure this is where the whole presents-in-stockings thing came around during Christmas time.... *nods knowingly*) 

I am now in possession of a mood ring. 

And chocolates. 

Father Christmas is lovely person. :)

Something about this picture is just so lovely, isn't it? 

We decorated the Christmas tree today. It looks flipping fantastical, if I do say so myself. (We did have some epic problems with the lights. Grrrrr. They were blinking.... and we didn't want them to blink. And then half the lights we'd already strung on the tree went out. *facepalm*) But gaaaaaah! I so much love Christmas that it's worth having to fix bad lights!!! SO. MUCH. LOVE. 

I reached the Eleventh Doctor. 

I quite love him, he's brilliant. And, um, he's quickly rising to second favorite. =)

My sister Kat finally started watching Doctor Who as well. 

She likes it. 

I may have addicted her. 

Unfortunately, we already gave the first four seasons back to the people who loaned them to us, so she jumped right in to Eleven. I sang the theme song for her and um... I may have ruined it for her. DoooooWEEEooooooooh! WEEEEoooooWAAAH!

She's making a clay TARDIS. It's so cool!

So, I know I have been absolutely awful when it comes to commenting on everyone's blogs. And I am so very, so very, very, so very, very, very, so very, very, very, very sorry. :) But we have company up visiting, and I always feel a little awkward saying, "Ciao, people! I'm off to spend an hour or so viewing the blogger world... Tralalalally! Fend for yourselves!" Therefore, until they go, my commenting will still be rare. I am reading all the posts though! :)

For your enjoyment........

My absolute favorite version of O Holy Night. None other can compare in my eyes. It's by Josh Groban. 

And the cutest Little Drummer Boy by Tennessee Ernie Ford.... (that last part, 'then he smiled at me'... adorable.)

And now that I have rambled most distressingly I will bid you all a very fond goodnight. x
