The long-awaited Christmas entry

matrixrefugeeChristmas eve! I was decorating our tree, when I opened the box containing the candy canes we use from year to year... to find half of them had evaporated. I have no idea what caused it, but there were the wrappers still in the box, perfectly intact, but with nothing in them. My guess is the heat this summer was so bad they somehow evaporated. It wasn't like they'd melted all over the inside of the box or anything. They were just... gone.
Christmas Day: Went to Mass at Holy Trinity (More news about our church in another entry, if my 'Net connection keeps behaving...). And my present for the first day of Christmas: a Virgin Mobile Oystr phone from my dad. I just set to work activating the account, now I just have to program the phone itself. Other gifts: a lovely red LL Bean button-front cardigan sweater and a minature china teaset from my mom. The last one might seem odd, but she herself admitted to me that one of the things she'd always regretted never getting me when I was younger, was a little tea set. I might be a semi-adult, but I still have enough of a child-like sense about me to have a place in my heart for it.
That night, my buddy Mark came to visit. We took a walk to see the lights in the neighborhood and chat for a bit, then we went to see "A Night at the Museaum" -- which is very funny, just a good, light movie in which history comes to life... with hysterical results for a very put-upon night guard played by Ben Stiller.
