Ho Ho Ho

I don't think I want a lot for xmas this year. I was reading Upton and I could not agree more. There's not much I covet right now. Even though I did manage to put together a wish list for some friends who asked, I think what I'm getting is probably more than enough. Like Upton said, I don't want a drawer full of things I will never use. I think I'm getting some personal care products, some new sneakers and a membership to The Arboretum. And that's going to be all. And you know what? I don't think I need much else.

I got people asking 'what do you want these holidays?' and I really could  not come up with something that did not feel superfluous or just disposable. Clothes, that usually get me started, did not mean much this time around. I am not really getting dressed up to go to work these days, so there's really not an incentive. Records? I like to go crate digging myself and getting good deals. Books? yeah, they're a good bet, but apart from a few titles, I would have to finish the ones I'm reading now before I embark in a new one. I don't think I need anything for the house. I think I've got everything covered on that front. So coming up with things for this xmas needed some thinking.

Am I being just too difficult? 2020 has not been an easy year. You'd think I'd enjoy some silly little gift to lift my spirits (apart from the Mini from Maddie and the Mask4mask mask from Lurkie!). But I think what's making me happy these days is knowing the people I know and love are ok. That I'm not having problems at work (not having to see my boss face to face really, really helps!) and that I'm healthy during the pandemic (which seems to be quite the achievement, taking into account we're spiking as I type). 

So maybe I'm going to go back and revise that RuPaul song. Who knows? I may find out I really want some of that for next year... maybe lipo? Hey, after all the Panettone I'm having this year, I may need it!
