"Major Award"

A Christmas Story is hands down my favorite Holiday movie, just beating out It's a Wonderful Life and Rudolph the Red Noise Reindeer (which Laura's Uncle directed - but he's a Jew?). Also, Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas was a wonderful treat as a child. Thanks to the Turner Broadcast System, I am able to watch A Christmas Story over and over and over again -- they run it for 24 hours on Christmas!

I woke up this morning expecting only to find the presents that my father and step-mother sent me under the tree. This was not the case, Laura, being the bestest girlfriend, had a shit-load of presents waiting for me! (We had already exchanged presents - see my Chrismukah post). As I was opening my presents (The BG Miniseries and Season One, the Band of Brothers box set, the Vitamen PH photo book, and a kick ass mug, amongst other amazing things) I realized there was one thing I really wanted that I knew I wouldn't get. I wanted a Leg Lamp, the "Major Award"! I REALLY want a Leg Lamp! Dixie? Santa?

If anyone wants one or wants to buy me one go here. I'll take the 45" Standard Lamp with full size wooden shipping crate.

WOW! This post was very personal and revealing. Good thing only you read it!
