--AND, people. AND.

2. What do you want most for Christmas?

--More time. Period. And for my sweeties to also have more time.

3. Do you believe in Father Christmas?

--In a metaphorical sense, perhaps. But I KNOW the Hogfather exists!

4. What is your favorite food at Christmas?

--Christmas cookies! The big trays of them my aunt makes. And pork pies. And peppermint bark!

5. What is your best memory of Christmas?

--Hmm. I think my ninth Christmas, when I got my favourite doll and a hardcover set of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. But I think this year will top that: pierceheart will be there with me, and it WON'T be at a horrible, scary point in our relationship.

10. What do you look forward to most at Christmas?

--Listening to the Chieftans' The Bells of Dublin and other old-style Christmas music. Giving gifts. Wearing red and sparkles.

11. What are you doing for Christmas this year?

--The traditional Christmas Eve bash (nice clothes, tons of food) at my aunt's place with the extended family, and the traditional Christmas Day bash at my parents' place (casual clothes, tons more food) with family and friends.

12. Who do you want to kiss under the mistletoe?

--Oh, there are quite a few, but I think I'd start with pierceheart and dahveed76. ;)

13. What kind of Christmas tree do you have?

--None, alas. I only help decorate other people's.

14. Do you take part in a secret santa?

--Nope, but I do participate in two gift swaps.

15. Do you go to any Christmas parties?

--Yup, my family's stuff, my office party, and a couple of tree-trimming parties.

16. Have you ever had a white Christmas?

--Yeah, but mostly they've been brown and grey.

17. How early do you wake up on Christmas morning?

--About the same time as I usually do when left to my own devices: around 9ish.

18. Do you still get a stocking?

--Sometimes, sometimes not. Haven't had one in since 2003, I think.

19. How many Christmas cards do you normally send out?

--Send? I give a few out. This year I will actually put some in the mail. I think I have about 2 dozen to send.

20. What is your Christmas wish?

--That one day, I'll be the one wrapping gifts and stuffing stockings for my kids, and being woken up way too early on Christmas morning to watch their eyes light up like the tree. :)

*sigh* Have you seen Star Trek Generations? I love the Christmas scene...

Peppermint bark is EVIL and BAD because I could eat a whole tin of it myself. And I may well go get some today. Alas. I'll have to put it out for the office peeps.

I have eaten a whole tin of it before. And started on a second tin.
