Friday Five
I have been slack and missed two of these in a row.... Here for you reading pleasure is the most recent bar one and I'll try and catch up the other one soon....
1. Do you enjoy the cold weather and snow for the holidays?
I wish. What cold weather and snow? No use dreaming of a White Christmas when it is 40° C (105° F) in the shade. I did enjoy a cold Christmas about 10 years ago - I was in Europe.
2. What is your ideal holiday celebration? How, where, with whom would you celebrate to make things perfect?
I want a white christmas with cool weather but I will settle for a few tinnies down at the beach (a lá this post).
3. Do you do have any holiday traditions?
Drinking beer. Nope, that is an all-year round tradition. Visiting rellies? Christmas decos (up on the first Sunday in Advent, down by the sixth of January). Trying to ignore the santas in every shopping center.
4. Do you do anything to help the needy?
Yup but most of that is personal stuff. This year my wife has asked for all her gifts to be converted into charitable donations. Things are a bit tight this year (with the prospect of unemployment looming) but we still try to do the right thing...
5. What one gift would you like for yourself?
Well I'd like a new powerbook (this one is getting a bit long in the tooth) but we cannot spend that much. I settle for some quality time with the family that does not involve settling fights between the kids....
