I wonder if I could pull off a wreath?
You totes can!
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

Our current favorite version of O Holy Night is the South Park version where they poke Cartman with a cattle prod.
Though I'm sure I've got a prettier one on possibly my Roches album.
Today I played my xmas CD by the Players, a troop of traditional British musicians who play 19th century and earlier Christmas carols on acoustic, traditional instruments (like, the hurdy gurdy for that lovely bit of drone).
It's very Dickens Christmas.

Okay! I'm going to try. Surely the internet knows how. I have wire. I have a ribbon. Who better than me?

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
That's great that Emmett does that.

Where have these been all my life?
The Mexican "hot" chocolate cupcakes I baked yesterday are truly epic, though.

O Holy Night
IMO, Perry Como sings the one true version. For a completely different sound, I also enjoy Tracy Chapman's.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why is framing so expensive? I'm sure I'm being robbed, but even so. I never have the energy to comparison shop.

Framing is expensive. It requires a lot of specialty tools. You probably aren't being robbed. I know an artist who went into framing and started a business because it was too damn expensive to keep paying to frame his own work.

I've six O Holy Nights. This one by Lou Christie with the Pittsburgh Choir is pretty. Also have Brave Combo's O Holy Night Cha Cha, and a soul version with Irma Thomas, Tracie Thomas and Marcia Ball.

I'm sure I'm being robbed simply because a) OMG expensive but also I'm going to the nearest place to my apartment and it's a chain store and I've never comparison shopped and I don't even choose very aggressively. It's all on me.
