My mood has been improving.
Maybe it's because this Christmas spirit
has finally hit me,
or maybe because my friends and family have been so great
in helping me over the rough spots.
Maybe a little of both.
I took some time for just me & my son yesterday.
We rarely do things together, at this time of the year, with his school and my work,
but since neither of us had any other obligations,
we went out in our nearby town, to get some sushi
and dig on the Christmas scene...
Christmas is very popular here.
Not for the same reasons,
but the facade is real enough.
We had a nice time walking around, and taking snapshots.
My next gigs are 4 consecutive nights,
starting Thursday;
The 22nd, 23rd, Christmas Eve, & Christmas Night
at The Imperial.
I'm working with some great musicians, in a beautiful setting.
It's definitely looking like Christmas around here.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well,
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas;
Soon the bells will start,
And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart.
It's Beginning To Look Like Christmas
