thats so fun Radiant Bridge
Yes we went Caroling, in the neighborhood next to ours, it was a blast! it was amazing how many people tried to give us money.. O.o they assumed we were out for a charity or something. We could have easily scammed a few hundred.. of course we didn't! we returned the cash with a smile, and offered them rainbow coloured candy canes instead :D
we took my best friends 5 year old, my god daughter, and one house gave he a big bag of "raindeer food" (puppy chow, chexmix) she was SO excited, and confused when we wanted to eat it.. lol!
My friends and i have many traditions that we uphold separate from our families, but we are all respectful of our separate family traditions as well.. it's really interesting considering the different backgrounds we come from..
I personally am pagan, which many of you already know, but celebrate a "Christmas" with my friends, because it's easy

my two best friends are Catholic and Jewish, so we have to work impossibly hard to include everyone without offending anyone.
I love this time of year, i wish more people could hold the onto their cheer from this season just a little longer than they do
Oh! if anyone is reading this far... i'm looking for a specific christmas album from the 80s-90s.. i couldn't tell you more than i think it had a lot of Mark Blanc songs..
i'm specifically looking for the song that has these lyrics, and seems to be sung by either central-american children, or maybe.. asian? not sure.. but it's like a choir of children singing :
"And the preacher man said to us...
chrissy-mas is not snow and ice,
chrissy-mas like a party,
party that all man kind can share,
so... we tell everybody!
You.. you don't have to have snow and ice to have chrissy-mas
you don't have to have snow and ice to do it right!
and when there's no snow and no ice there's still chrissy-mas
'cuz chrissy-mas is chrissy-mas if chrissy-mas's not white!"
i swear.. we can't find it anywhere.. i'm beginning to thing that my sister and i made it up!

let me know if you've heard of it! or know where to find it ><
