Dangit, I've cried twice at work today! We're playing Christmas songs here now and Christmas songs in general make me just woozy with nostalgia. So far I've heard two different versions of "I'll be home for Christmas" which is just really the saddest song ever, but I did manage not to cry the second time I heard it. Then they played that cursed "Feed the World" or "Do They Know Its Christmas" or whatever its called. I can't help it, I love that song, I think it evokes such a vivid picture of how much we have and how little so many others have. I get weepy right from the beginning but then when it gets to the part where Bono belts out "Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you" I nearly fall over dead. See, now I'm crying again.
I'm so excited about our trip to Canada next week but so nervous about the cost and the dogs (being boarded) and customs and all the things that still need to be done in the next week while I'm still trying to unpack boxes from our recent move that I'm just a bundle of frayed nerves waiting for an excuse to bawl again. Don't you wish you were married to me?

My favorite is "Have yourself a merry little Christmas," particularly the version sung by Judy Garland. That one made me tear up yesterday in Border's, so you're not alone.
