I will spend Christmas with a restaurant lunch, then dinner with family members in the evening.

What do you hope to receive for Christmas?

for myself, relief from aches and pains and worry, but for my fellow working-class strugglers, i would wish for the same thing PLUS healthcare for all who suffer from untreated ailments whose medical treatment has been long-deferred due to lack of $$$$$.

Nothing.

Are you a real, live sentient being? How are you going to prove it using empirical evidence?

A real good surprise under the Christmas tree, one that I don't know of.

If you offer or/and are offered presents for Christmas, is it usually on the 24th in the evening or on the 25th in the morning?

It used to be on the 25th in the morning but lately it's been on the 24th in the evening. I don't know why we changed it. Lost our patience?.. :shrug:


What's the best thing that happened to you today? :)

I'll say the clear blue skies and pleasant weather. Sure it isn't a white Christmas, but after a couple of months of overcast and rainy weather it feels nice. I am surprised in how much the weather can affect my mood.


Who would you say is the weirdest member of your extended family, hopefully in a good way, that you see over the holidays?

Me. I'm not joking.
Well, I've got one auntie that hugs and kisses everyone too much but that's considered "normal" in my family. :roll:

Me too. I don't mind the label, but I wonder if I am actually related to these people at least some of the time.

The Ugly Duckling. I really liked The Jungle Book too.

I'm not just lazy. Well, maybe a little. But really I like the question:

I was always fascinated with the characters in Alice's Adventure in Wonderland mainly for the fact that the characters had such interesting personalities.

If you could live to be 100 would you and why?

100 years of misery? Count me out!

If you could live forever, would you?

I think it would be amazing to live forever to be able to the progression of man kind. Just as long as I could stay in a younger looking state not an old man.

What is your happiest memory you have of the any holiday season?
