Day 16

Several blogs ago, I talked about the Christmas song “Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer” and how its way more depressing than you remember. But that’s not the only song waiting to bum you out during the holidays. Here are 5 more songs that might be the reason that some people get so depressed this time of year…

Blue Christmas

Sure it’s a classic, but it’s about how the King will be spending Christmas alone pining for his ex. Not exactly yuletide cheer.

Most depressing lyrics:
When those blue snowflakes start fallin’
That’s when those blue memories start callin’ Read the rest of this entry »

Day 15

I’d love to give you guys a big thoughtful blog, but it’s almost midnight and I’ve just realized I still haven’t hung the stockings yet.

How did I forget that? Where is Santa gonna put all my pocket sized knick knacks?

If you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to figure out how I’m going to hang these giant stockings on these laughably small hooks I bought.

Day 14

Whenever I hear “Deck the Halls” I always think of this old commercial.

I played it for my wife and she’d never heard of it. So anyone else remember this?

Day 13

As I mentioned on the last show, I just got made permanent at my job. So today there was a little ceremony where they introduced all the new permanent hires at the weekly company meeting. The company CEO brought me up to say a few awkward words and this was what I came up with, “Hey it’s great to be here. I love [this company]. I love Christmas. Oh…and I love to party!”

Did it get a laugh? Yes. But immediately after he took the mic away, I wished I had waited a beat after he put the mic in my face and said…

It might not have gone over that great, but what a great moment!

Day 12

YouTube recently posted a video called “2013 Rewind.” Sort of a mish-mash of all the big events from the past year. I recognized so few things, it’s more than a little sad. I recon=gnized maybe 4 songs in there, a few faces, and a couple viral videos. It’s not like I don’t spend time on the internet. I’m online for hours everyday both for work and pleasure. Yet somehow, mot of this still past me by. How about you? Do you remember this crap?

Day 10

Tonight I finally got it all the decorating done. Last year, I think our outside lights were up for a total of 5 days because I didn’t get around to putting them up. But this year, oh this year we’ve got lights baby! Look at this good stuff.

Whew…now I can relax…except I haven’t done any shopping for anyone on my list yet.

AW CRAP!!!

Day 9

Hey everybody. This is a test blog. I’m not actually typing this into anything I’m talking into my phone as I drive to work. Easy I’m running late with today’s blog and this weeks episode of 10 cast. So I decided I would talk my blog into my phone and see if will be good enough to post as my blog. But I have a feeling, that is going to be riddled with errors and really hard to understand. But the most important thing I wanted to talk about on my blog today was that I need your help. Matt Sweet, Noah and I will be busy so we can’t record an episode. So I wanted to ask you people, what do you think we should do for our blank episode? We can’t do another episode of call waiting because we don’t have time to get together. I was thinking of doing a best out of our holiday shows, or I could do a high-five list of songs we left out of our hi5 favorite Christmas carols. Or we can do another idea that you guys think up. What do you think?

Wow, Siri just read that back to me and it blog sounds like a train wreck. You know what, I’m in a leave it like that, and will call this experiment of failure. I’ll update with corrections when I get home.
