Actually, it snowed earlier today. It’s not ACTUALLY still snowing.
So today, due to being trapped inside and it being very wintery, I shall post a rather nostalgic song. I am rather happy today. The buildup to Christmas is my favourite holiday season. Christmas isn’t all that great or anything, especially since, well, family get-togethers are chaotic lately, but I love how much it’s romanticized, and I love the seasonal music and the movies and being cuddly. And I especially love scarves.

PS. You ought to buy their album, Kill Them With Kindness. It’s quite hard to find at rational places where you think you’ll be able to find it, but it’s a seriously sick awesome nasty sicknasty sweet hardxcore investment of time and money. Though, of course, I got it for my birthday in August from un ami after raiding record sections at local not-record stores in the tricounty area around Richmond. At first, I thought it would only be a spring kind of album, but it fits my mood rather nicely lately.

Love scarves too – I recently got into knitting which kind of feeds the obsession. The Christmas season is my favorite as well for lots of reasons. A great winter book read is called “Blankets” by Craig Thompson. I had some similar experiences in my life which made it more poignant, but it’s one of my favs. It looks long, but it’s a graphic novel so it takes no time at all to finish.
Comment by amateurish 6 December, 2007 @ 1133 amOh man, do I love scarves. I also recommend “Blankets;” it is quite the winter book.
Comment by Kate 6 December, 2007 @ 737 pmIncidentally, you should check out a band called “Dear and the Headlights,” they’re rather new but I hope/think you would enjoy them.
