monk222: (Christmas)
“Hug me till you drug me, honey;
Kiss me till I’m in a coma:
Hug me, honey, snuggly bunny;
Love’s as good as soma.”


-- “Brave New World” by Aldous Huxley

That cute little song comes near the end; so, I’m running out of book. And my special, special Christmas present is probably still a good week away from being delivered. But I have a plan.

Ever since I first got and read Charles Dickens’s “A Christmas Carol” about six years ago, I meant to make rereading it a Christmas tradition, but it never worked out, as I always seemed to be wrapped up in another book, and then the Christmas season is past. Well, I should be able to get around to it this year! It will buy me another few days.

Oh, no, I've read this one at least a couple of times, and I'm not tired of it yet. It has to easily be in the top 100 books of all time, and maybe I could've said a dozen.

I'm sure I will enjoy it your book. I'm almost kind of desperate for it. Though, I am looking forward to giving "Christmas Carol" another run, so all's well that ends well.

I'll probably post from my reading of it, and I was wondering if you mind if I mention that it is a gift from you, or do you prefer to keep that fact more in the shadows?
