I just put Claire down for her nap and thought I'd write a quick blog entry. I was going to write a blog entry yesterday but never got around to it. I wanted to comment on this awful Christmas song (if that's what you'd call it) I heard on the radio. It was a version of The 12 Days of Christmas but was so mixed up with other songs it was very painful to listen to. Normally I would have changed the station but I wanted to hear who sang the song. It's by a group called Straight, No Chaser. Apparently they're a college band and have become quite popular with this stupid song. The DJ on the radio said it's the most requested song this year. I have NO IDEA why. I just sat there thinking how awful it was - for example, it starts out with the First Day of Christmas, then jumps to the 5th day, then to the 8th, then adds in some other Christmas songs, then the dreidel song, then a pop song (I can't remember the song's name sorry!). Anyway, it's pretty bad. Just amazing that people would like that junk.
And all this after yesterday I was finally in the Christmas spirit. I watched a little bit of "Holiday Inn" and "White Christmas" the night before (two of my favorite Christmas movies) and was all geared up for the season. I got a TON of shopping done at Target while Brett was at school and then that stupid song. But, it didn't ruin my mood. Just made me shake my head.
Now I'm off to frost and decorate cookies with Brett for his Christmas program tomorrow night. This should be interesting.
