Yesterday Chou and I were in town (almost getting ripped off when purchasing treats at an Indian bakery but not getting ripped off because Chou can do basic math AND confront people about cover charges--what is this, Italy?!) and I saw that Christmas lights are going up! Christmas lights and giant bows and festive wreaths in Manhattan. I took it as a sign that I should start listening to the John Denver and the Muppets Christmas record that I found in my brother's vinyl collection. Come faster, Christmas!
These are Muppets.
These are not.
p.s. My brother lives next door to a church and they have been singing up a storm since Friday night. They're currently singing "In the Sweet By and By." It's lovely.

That's my family's favorite album! Or, a favorite. Ever since I was 3, we have listened to it immediately after Thanksgiving dinner. We went from record, to cassette, to CD, and somewhere on the road I taped the movie off the TV for us. What better way to celebrate Christmas? (Other than A Muppet Family Christmas or The Christmas Toy!) :-) I was wondering--will you be going to the Macy's Parade? I've always wanted to see it live.
No, I can't make myself believe that the parade is worth the hassle, but we went to the balloon inflation event and that was fun!
