Sylvan Screen Song Turned Christmas

Em Etc.

Christmas Day, I wake and I stare at my ceiling.
The cracks are varicose like the snow frozen streams.
Christmas Day, it takes a while for me to remember.
That today is the day it is.

And I was a shopping whiz.
I'm one of the best in the biz.
I got hers, and I got his.
It's good to give.

Em Etc.

Christmas Day, I sit and I look out my window.
The snow is falling now and it seems to never stop.
Christmas Day, I sit but I turn to my presents.
They could be anything I want them to be.

C A

And you can come unwrap with me.
And we can do it by the Christmas Tree.
Reading the tags: from you to me.
It's good to receive.

I slacked, so now I'm in Detroit.

Things I've done today that do not count as studying:

• Rocked out with Ben to the full line-up.
• Went to Pinball Pete's.
• Rockout alone, to 'Hey Sandi' and successfully learned the solo.
• Invented a music holding contraption on my bed.
• Ate with Chana, BP, and M-J.
• Accidently tricked a friend into walking up a few flights of stairs...with a cello.
• Slid across across the ground how I used to--oh those were the days.
• Ate.
• Wrote poem in parody of a poem by my prof.
• Aced a final thanks to Fadie.
• Wondered where Nick has been...

But, now--now, I will study.

And Nick cleaned the room.

• I called ben with IP Relay. Th'operator was nice, but wouldn't tell me if Ben sounded drunk. The line they draw between what they're allowed to say to the people in the converstation is a fine one.
• Failed to climb that tree.
• Lost my key, found it under a tree.
• Succeeded in climbing that tree.
  
• Emailed my old Art History Prof. about a really old scanned in postcard that I found online of this piece of art he wrote a paper on.
• I rocked out with Frontier Ruckus at the Magdo's Teahouse and it kicked ass.
• Also, recorded some with (Mc)Zach and Ben.
• I watched season one of Pete and Pete. Mike lent me the DVDs. Say, maybe I like the music I like from watching that show? I mean, they were injecting me with The Magnetic Fields way before I'd even figured out that I liked music.
• I wrote a lot of my paper, (and yet, there's still much, much more to do).
