well it tis the xmas/chanukah season once again

tonight is the first night of chanukah
so happy dreidel spinning to you-all!

i remember growing up i always felt jealous of my christian friends
yes we had 8 days of chanukah
8 days of sitting around the kitchen
while my mom gave us things like
new socks?
sheesh

the whole world
or at least this country was all about christmas
i mean there wasn't exactly the charlie brown chanukah special now was there

these days
i mesh my worlds together
tonight i will eat kosher pastrami with loved ones
and light the menorah

and in a couple of days
i will drink egg nog or hmm wine
egg nog is nasty i think
and watch christmas movies or some such thing or maybe CNN
and share the warmth

im a jew
who loves christmas
doesnt mean i believe in jesus
except to say i think he was a great rabbi
and a cool dude
doesn't mean i believe in santa
but
i just love
anything that brings out the good
and kind in people

so i wish you all a happy
kind-ness season

a giving give season

and a jolly joy season

peace out
