This weekend Farmboy and I are putting up my Christmas tree. This is exciting because I made some excuses the last three years about not putting it up. One excuse is: I am too busy cause I am in school. I can't use that one since the majority of my work will be done by this Monday. Another excuse is: I need big strong man like Farmboy to put it up for me. So we will decorate the tree naked* and we will listen to Christmas music and Ruby will fart a lot (as usual). I also can't say that I don't have a tree because the previous owners left their artificial tree in the attic. And I have lights and garlands and some really old ornaments from the 1970s that my parents gave me, and they crack me up because they are so ugly. I have some nice ornaments too but I must display the tacky stuff as a measure of irreverance to the people who have trees with perfectly matching everything. I also have a worn-out cassette so that will probably become a set of tree ornaments. Photos forthcoming after the weekend.

*just kidding about that part.
