A few scenes of Christmas decorations chez Sara & Dennis:

Elves and elf heads hung up in a doorway.

Here's a shot of our aluminum tree, which also features decapitated elves and many many feet of bead garlands.

And that would pretty much be it for decorations around here. I never did get our collection of lighted tinsel treetoppers hung up. But I picked up a really awful one when I went to Walgreen's yesterday to get the squishy Puffs with the lotion. It has a vintage-looking round-headed angel in the middle of the traditional lighted tinsel ring. $1.49 of fine kitsch.

Happy New Year! Dennis had a great time at the New Monsoon show last night. I couldn't go because, believe it or not, I am sick again. Same deal, sore throat goes to head cold goes to chest cold. Bah. I couldn't sleep, so I watched the Scariest Movie Moments thing on Bravo after midnight, which was perhaps not the best choice. Me=kind of a wuss.

This ick been going around at church, and I've been such a ball of stress, it's amazing I have anything that would count as an immune system. And of course I had a shitload of things to do this weekend, which did not include sitting on the sofa and bitching and eating lemon drops. And yet that seems to be the only thing I've crossed off my to-do list.

I've pulled the Advent nativities together and put them all here: Cavalcade of Bad Nativities.
