Christmas Themes! And exclamation points!

I’m so excited! I completely forgot about Christmas themes for Firefox! Last year I used Tinseltown. I tried X-Mas today, but the animated snow flakes were a bit too much so I’m now testing X-Mas Light. So far so good!

Mozilla Links is what reminded me about all of this. They’ve also linked to some Firefox Christmas desktop backgrounds, though that’s a bit too much for me. Firefox is a browser, not my life! Right now my desktop background image is reserved for the Amazon Kindle. Some people movie stars or cars as their background images. I put up nerdy gadgets I want.

Actually, I usually have some spiffy scenic photo as my desktop background. Like this.

Snowy Saturday

I took this on Saturday while it was snowing. It was awesome.

And this post is going no where. The end.

I couldn’t help it

Two posts ago, while talking about DailyLit, I mentioned the following:

As soon as it gets closer to Christmas I’m going to read A Christmas Carol.

Well, it turns out that Saturday I was feeling sick and so didn’t go anywhere all day. I got pretty bored in the evening while reading A Tale of Two Cities. I wanted to read something a bit more exciting. So I started reading A Christmas Carol. I read 9 “parts” (DailyLit doesn’t email you a full chapter at a time, only parts of chapters) and went to bed. I had no plans to finish it quickly.

And then today I got on my computer and read the daily email… and then clicked the “send me the next part immediately” link 27 times to finish the book! ha ha!

I don’t like listening to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving, but I didn’t at all mind reading such an excellent a Christmas book.

I will, however, wait in wishing you all happiness in the aforementioned holiday.
