Sorry! Got busy! Forgot it was Wednesday! Made challah instead!

Better late than never?

Whatever.

Word association word is: cookie

New poll in the sidebar: what’s your favorite Christmas Carol.

This doesn’t include hymns, which you might sing while caroling. Of course, the last time I remember caroling, was for French club in high school. We went around my French teachers neighborhood, singing French Christmas carols, to her neighbors. Then we went back to her house and had a party.

Anyway, your favorite Christmas carols?

It’s Wednesday, so it’s time for word association.

In honor of my adventures Monday night, today’s word is: emergency

This is one of those songs.

New poll today – best Christmas song. This does not include hymns or carols, but rather the songs you hear on the radio.

But I’ll take comments for hymns and carols.

What does it say about me that upon seeing the following in my Inbox:

I immediately thought, I hated HIGHLIGHTS! Why do I want a radio station for it?

You should know the rules by now.

Today’s word: code

Nothing to see here. Move along. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.

It’s that time of the week.

For the passing of my mother-in-law’s husband, this week’s word is in honor of Bill:

Model T

Obama Weather (via Wait Wait)

The IgNobel Please Stop I’m Bored mug.

The stupidest idea I have ever seen in my life. (Make sure to check out the “other views”.)

Happy Anniversary Michael!

I love you, and I’d do it all again if given the choice.

Really. I would.

New poll over on the sidebar: Worst Christmas Song Ever.

These are the songs that make me want to smash the radio and throttle the singer.

You get to choose from my least favorites. If you want, you can add your hated songs here in the comments, and I’ll make another poll later.

Caveat 1: We’re talking songs, not a specific version by a particular artist.
Caveat 2: This is something you’re likely to hear when you leave the house and go Christmas shopping. Not something that was played once and then disappeared.

I am thankful for…
