Tis The Season

As I'm wrapping up my Thanksgiving I basically feel like not moving. I spent the majority of my day at work. Then I finally got the opportunity to relax and feast. I'm about to pop in Rudy, a Thanksgiving tradition of my own. Texas is in a battle with Texas A&M. The Broncos are rolling. Xavier didn't show up to play today. Neither did the Lions. And the Cowboys won. But as I'm winding it down I thought it would be necessary to step back and hit on something other than sports. So without further adieu, I present to you in no particular order my holiday list of things I enjoy during the holiday season.
