RANDOM POST: Tag! You're it! (Christmas Style)
I got tagged by buddy Cia over at her new and improved blog http://www.ciapinkpumpkin.com/
So let's go to it shall we...
http://www.ciapinkpumpkin.com/2013/12/10/tag-youre-it-christmas-style/
1. What do you love the most about Christmas time?I'd have to go putting up the Christmas tree and decorating as well as watching Christmas specials and movies with some eggnog and walking around town seeing everything decorated.
2. Do you celebrate the holiday in style or is Bah-Humbug for you?
I didn't use to before I met my boyfriend. When I was a kid, Christmas time was a big deal with my family. Then one me, my younger brothers and cousin all grew up, Christmas time kinda lost its festiveness. Throughout my 20's, Christmas time just wasn't anything special. e even stopped giving each other presents after awhile. I would hang out with my fam (my mom and grandma always cooks a big meal) during the day and then I would go out to the gay bars that night and have a few cocktails with friend. Then I met my boyfriend that kind of changed. He'll never admit it but he's a big kid a heart and he made Christmas special for me. We'd decorate together and watch movies and specials together and all kinds of fun stuff.
3. Are you leaving anything out for Santa Claus this year so he remembers to leave your presents? Hell no! I've never done that, not even as a kid and have no intention on doing it in the future. I'm a little too old for that sort of thing. Even if I wanted to, I have a mischievous cat at home who would find it and knock it over.
4. What is the one gift you are most looking forward to GIVING? {It can be to your kids, another family member, etc – remember to be discreet if they read your blog!} It's a surprise so I can't say
5. What is your all-time favorite Christmas movie? Without a doubt, it has to be Rankin & Bass stop motion Christmas special "The Year Without a Santa Claus" with Snow Miser and Heat Miser. I've watched that faithfully every Christmas since I was a kid.
6. What is your all-time favorite Christmas song? Hmmm, I have a bunch. I think my all time favorite song that gets me in the spirit every time is a song from the 70's called "Merry Christmas All" by the Salsoul Orchestra....I can't think of the name of the lady who sings it.
7. If given the opportunity would you participate in an “Ugly Sweater” party and what sweater would you wear? Peruse one on the internet or even in your own closet and show us! A loud resounding NO!!!!! I hate ugly sweater parties and ugly sweaters in general. I like to wear look my best and would never wear anything ugly, intentionally or otherwise. And although I can see why people would think ugly sweater parties could be fun, I just think they're silly.
8. Have you started any Christmas traditions this year that you plan on carrying forward?
Honestly, no. Well no, that's not true. This year my boyfriend and I have experimented with a different color scheme for the tree and the apartment instead the traditional red and green. This year we have blue, white and green lights on the tree with white/iridescent, blue and silver decorations. So that might be an ongoing thing.
9. It’s Christmas morning … what does it look like outside where you live? No clue. I live in New Orleans and the weather is very inconsistent. It might be bright and sunny, it might be grey and overcast, it might be rainy, it might feel like summer, it might cold and windy, it might even snow. There have been three times in my life that it snowed down here. So yeah, I have no clue.
10. You just found yourself standing under the mistletoe … who comes up to give you a kiss first? My boyfriend I hope!
I am tagging 10 of my fav bloggers and hope they will continue the tag with the same set of questions and leave the link to their post in the comments.
