Today I am not gonna list out the haul. That's because I bought your present. I don't want to spoil it, so you'll have to wait until the 25th for a better understanding of this blog post.
Of course, I didn't report the first time I went for presents last week. It's still the same. If I could, I would get all presents at the bookstore. They don't just have books. They have other stuff. Games. Toys. Cards. Just stuff for presents.
And I get a discount. Which came in handy. Last week it was an extra 10% on top of the 10% discount of being a member. This week it was 20%. Plus, I had coupons. So I saved on my presents. Cool.
Merry Yule to you to!

Started to begin the wrapping of presents. Rummaged around the closet for the big roll of Christmas wrap. Won't you know it it's gone. In it's place is another roll. This one's close to done, too. I must use it.
Unfortunately, it's a glittery kind.
Now I remember. I bought it last year towards the last days before Christmas when most of the rolls were gone from the local Target. Desperate straights. I need to wrap the final presents so here it was.
I also remember that it would leave a smattering of glitter all over the place. I have it now on my pants. But last Christmas, it was all under the tree. Ridiculous.
I wrapped one present in this glittery Christmas wrap, and I'm done with it.
I should get to Target before they're all out of wrap. I was there earlier and it looked like there was still a ton left. Crossing my fingers...

I saw a better representation of the Krampus on an episode of Tales from the Darkside. That episode was scarier and made the Krampus more evil. Throwing wicked, dark elves, fighting snowmen, and monster ginger bread men does not make for a scare. Unfortunately, it didn't make for a laugh as well.
Krampus wants to be this millennium's Gremlins -- a comedy frightfest. It had a simple premise -- be good and believe in Santa or else his sinister cousin, the Krampus will come and bring you to hell. The Krampus is what happens to kids when they shout, cry, pout at Christmas time.
It happens quickly. The Krampus starts coming because the main kid begins to disbelieve in the spirit of Christmas. His parents ignore him. He gets teased for believing in Santa in school. His cousins are white trash hicks who also torment him. This makes for an awful Christmas Eve in which he renounces his belief in Christmas. So enters the Krampus who quickly dispatches the kids family. He fights him off. Then it ends on a terrible note ruining much of the movie.
Maybe in a few years as this gets heavy rotation around Christmas time on Chiller will this make you like it. At the moment, wait for it in a few years.
Bah, humbug!
2 of 5 stars.

These are silly decorations. Christmas has silly decorations. Decorations are silly. But they brighten up the night. I wish I wasn't lazy so that I would put up some decorations myself. Not these. These are too silly.

There's beer there. There should be beer here. But, seriously, decorate your tree with beer. It's the season for it.

I can't help but think of my dad...
I'm sure he would've been proud of me...
I'm sure he would also be repeating his last words to me...
I miss him so but more during the holidays for his heartwarming laugh. Like Santa!

The wreath is hung on the door. It's getting to be Christmas. Except the weather's been mild -- not too many cold days and too many warm days. At least it's December.
I'm too lazy to hang holiday lights. I haven't put up my miniature Christmas tree since '08 or '09. I still do the wreath on the door. And I will play some Christmas Music.

Lights go up. It's almost Christmas time. Breaking out the cash to pay for the presents. Who gets what? Who doesn't get anything? Those who give. Those who receive. I can't believe this, I'm ready for snow.

Pasted from Jacob Hildebrandt flickr account.
And the party is already starting!
Don't forget that today was Festivus! It's for the rest of us.
Let me start with the airing of grievances…

There's nothing better than to cozy up to a Yule log burning in the chimney and finding a dead Santa. Happy Season's Greetings from you good blog buddy! Stay safe and have a great holiday.
