It took this long, but a few days ago I realized that Christmas is not about me any more. All of my joy comes from my 4 year old daughters. They are quite excited about it. We are trying to do lots of Christmasy things, but I feel so disorganised this year and like I am not doing it right. I guess part of it is that my wife for the first time did almost all the shopping. I was out last night at the mall and it felt like Christmas.

On a side note, I wonder if the Salvation Army has stats on how much more they collect when they have a hottie with the kettle. Even in the uniform, she was nice! Yes, I donated

It's not light for tanning but for taking photographs. I've found it very hard to get a Robin to perch on a snow covered branch while it's resting on a tanning bed.
