or convert to Judaism?

1. Naw, I haven't bought sh*t yet either.

There's still a whole week, almost!

[stupid grin]

2. Yes! Panic! Now!

Rip your shirt off, run screaming into the freezing night air and throw yourself on the first passing car windshied. Then, as you slowly roll into the ditch, think of what a horrible person you are for not properly planning ahead.

5. Thanks, now I feel better.

3. Me neither

I'm going shopping tomorrow, but I've loaded up my iPod with Coldplay, the Shins, Death Cab for Cutie, and stuff like that so I can wear it in the mall and try to Zen my way through.

My boyfriend's Jewish but I was raised Southern Baptist, so it's all presents, all December. *sigh*

4. I bought Christmas CD's

and baked a bunch of healthy goodies, all in velvet boxes from the drug store.

Really, classical CD's, whether classic rock or classic Mozart, Handel and Bach (or Beethoven's 9th for a powerful statement of freedom) is a profound and spirit building choice. And easy to wrap. :-)

Haven't gone in the mall once.

Also, we give Christmas mission money in various places. But I told all my family, no presents for me, they can donate in my name if they want. All I want for Christmas is divine worship and family connections.

6. Excellent ideas!

and I like your choices for classical CDs.
