3. When do you put up the tree? Whenever we have time. Hopefully before Christmas Eve!
4. When do you take the tree down? Early mid-January probably.
5. Do you like egg nog? Mmmhmmm. Extra whiskey in mine please.
6. Favorite gift received as a child? I got an outfit once that looked like the girl in the ZZ Top music video 'Legs'. Mini-skirt, pearlescent tights, pink ruffly socks, white shoes. I was HOTTT.
7. Do you have a nativity scene? No, but we do have an electric Menorah.

19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? I think so...

22. Most annoying thing about this time of year? The fact that people promote good will, but then let it go after the 'holiday season'.
23. Favorite ornament theme or color? Well, I was going to say I like glass blue balls, but it made me giggle. I have a bunch of ornaments from when I was a kid, but my favorite one is the little plastic tree with the decorate-your-own paper inside. One side was decorated like a tree, and the other said "I love Wham!".
