The Christmas season begins for my family when we put up our tree shortly after Thanksgiving. But it’s really not trimming the tree itself that does it – it’s that as we wrap the tree in lights and garland and hang the bulbs, we listen to the traditional Grey family holiday CDs for the first time.

To be fair to myself, I don’t actually own a television and haven’t for well over a decade. What I do have though is a laptop and my own personal ...1 day ago -

Ive had an ambivalent relationship with Christianity all my life. These days, I think its a lovely idea which has been perverted to cause much anguish and hurt over the centuries. And the same can be said about most religions, frankly. With the possible exception of Buddhism. That said, I have a great relationship ...2 days ago -

A band blaring out "Santa Claus is coming to town" always announced his arrival. One can only think that the poor band members were ready to run screaming into the streets after playing the same tune for two hours.

Cameron and I both seem to have a love/hate relationship with traditions. On the one hand, traditions are lovely: doing the same thing year after year because it’s enjoyable and because, well, you did it last year is perfectly fine.
