Rockin' around the Christmas tree, at the Christmas party hop

Happy New Year!
welcome 2009

(Does it even feel like the Holidays anymore? To me it feels like they died right at 12:01 a.m. on December 26.... Just think: if radio stations played Holiday music for as long after Christmas as they did before--making Christmas the center of the season, instead of its termination--they would be playing it to around Valentine's Day... or, if you prefer to mark it by holidays, the format switch happens the week before Thanksgiving--give or take--so a week after the next major holiday post-Christmas (New Year's) would put it right around January 6th....)

You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear
Voices singing let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
