Bookstore Haul 2: Vol 13. Twas the Night Before Christmas

Today I am not gonna list out the haul. That’s because I bought your present. I don’t want to spoil it, so you’ll have to wait until the 25th for a better understanding of this blog post.

Of course, I didn’t report the first time I went for presents last week. It’s still the same. If I could, I would get all presents at the bookstore. They don’t just have books. They have other stuff. Games. Toys. Cards. Just stuff for presents.

And I get a discount. Which came in handy. Last week it was an extra 10% on top of the 10% discount of being a member. This week it was 20%. Plus, I had coupons. So I saved on my presents. Cool.

Merry Yule to you to!

Glittery Paper. Sucks!

Started to begin the wrapping of presents. Rummaged around the closet for the big roll of Christmas wrap. Won’t you know it it’s gone. In it’s place is another roll. This one’s close to done, too. I must use it.

Unfortunately, it’s a glittery kind.

Now I remember. I bought it last year towards the last days before Christmas when most of the rolls were gone from the local Target. Desperate straights. I need to wrap the final presents so here it was.

I also remember that it would leave a smattering of glitter all over the place. I have it now on my pants. But last Christmas, it was all under the tree. Ridiculous.

I wrapped one present in this glittery Christmas wrap, and I’m done with it.

I should get to Target before they’re all out of wrap. I was there earlier and it looked like there was still a ton left. Crossing my fingers…

Frosty

Xmas stuff

It’s 70 degrees. This is frosty. He won’t be around any time soon.

Happy Holidays!

Last Christmas

BrowserMetrics wishes you and your family a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Krampus

I saw a better representation of the Krampus on an episode of Tales from the Darkside. That episode was scarier and made the Krampus more evil. Throwing wicked, dark elves, fighting snowmen, and monster ginger bread men does not make for a scare. Unfortunately, it didn’t make for a laugh as well.

Krampus wants to be this millennium’s Gremlins — a comedy frightfest. It had a simple premise — be good and believe in Santa or else his sinister cousin, the Krampus will come and bring you to hell. The Krampus is what happens to kids when they shout, cry, pout at Christmas time.

It happens quickly. The Krampus starts coming because the main kid begins to disbelieve in the spirit of Christmas. His parents ignore him. He gets teased for believing in Santa in school. His cousins are white trash hicks who also torment him. This makes for an awful Christmas Eve in which he renounces his belief in Christmas. So enters the Krampus who quickly dispatches the kids family. He fights him off. Then it ends on a terrible note ruining much of the movie.

Maybe in a few years as this gets heavy rotation around Christmas time on Chiller will this make you like it. At the moment, wait for it in a few years.

Bah, humbug!
