A Christmas Miracle!

15.12.09

Approximately 66% of this blog is already aware that this morning I experienced a very happy happening - nonetheless I'm telling you (again). En route to piano lessons under a cloak of soul-crushing morning darkness, I stopped at an exceptionally trashy pharmacy at the bus mall to loiter and avoid the sting of -45 degree weather.

And then, amongst the plethora of lead-tainted Christmas ornaments, I found a dvd copy of Muppet Family Christmas for 4 Canadian dollars. I know that at least 66% of you are aware that this cinematic gem don't come easy - the cheapest copy I've ever found on the internet was at least $60. I'm so excited.

I just returned from my piano students' Christmas recital. It was cuter than a thousand sneezing-panda videos, more heartwarming than watching otters hold hands. A tiny kid (too short to sit on the piano bench, he opted to stand while he played) performed Jingle Bells and the whole school started quietly singing along.

This was particularly adorable since most of these kids consider themselves to be hard as fuck, and in some cases rightly so. This little kid (and for maximum wholesomeness, his name is Mikey) was so excited that everybody was into his jam that he did a little dirt-off-your-shoulder dance on the way back to sit down with his class.

In closing, I'd like to share with you the most atrocious and satisfying of Christmas music videos. I am hopeful that my recent good fortune in finding obscure festive DVDs might extend to the acquisition of the much-sought-after Kenny and Dolly Christmas Special. Keep the dream alive.
