Christmas in Arizona-let's state the obvious; NO SNOW

So...December huh..? White snow, icy windows, cloudy sky and a bunch of thick woollen clothes to stay warm walking to the bus. That's basically what December reminds me of. And of course the snowball-in-the-neck-part. You can't live without it, because what is funnier than stuffing your friend's or sister's sweater with cold snow. Nothing beats that, the whole revenge part..let's just say, I can still outrun my sister. My friends on the other hand..hmm..I guess I had it coming.

Wait, did I forget something, oh yeah... Christmas, baby! Gifts, lights, threes and our beloved Santa Claus! The love of giving, and the joy of getting..And the what-to-wish-for-without-sounding-too-spoiled-part. *cough cough* I mean, is it really too much to ask? Ipod Touch, IPhone, a Apple computer, some wicked good camera (water resistant please), a couple of DVDs, a bunch of CD's, yeah and a trip to some tropic island or maybe just skiing in the Alps, or you know what? Just hand over a couple of grand and I'll be good. Wait, throw in a car, because I can drive in a year so just some random new, expensive, good-looking Lamborghini to cruise in would not be too bad. I think that was it..hmm...yeah and make the lamborghini yellow! ...It hink there is more..hang on..yeah. No. That was all. For now, and if you forget anything, you'll always have next year right?! Or even better, New Years Eve! *cough cough* my birthday is in May..the 13th..actually to be more specific..*cough cough*

So what is the problem, what is keeping me from this perfect Christmas..hmm..just let me think for a second and I'll tell you..hold on, I got it, wait for it. Wait for it..Oh yeah! I'm in Arizona and guess what? They don't have snow. That kinda ruins everything for me.. And one more thing, you know how Christmas is all about being with the ones you appreciate and love, here we go again; I'm in Arizona and guess what? My family and my friends are in some distant, tiny country in Europe. Yeah..so what happened to Christmas spirit again? I forgot.

The lights are up outside, just as colorful and sparkling as always. We just put together the Christmas three so our real-looking fake Christmas three just got a star on top (lucky bastard..I want a star ...add that to my list..thanks.) So put on your Christmas t-shirt, the cheap-looking pair of pants you just bought at Wal Mart's Thanksgiving sale and your flip flops and we will be ready for anything!

Peace Out. Ida.
