That's right.... December is here and I know I live in a place that NEVER snows... but I can't help loving winter. I know... winter where I live is not really WINTER, but I still find myself getting out my adorable Free People sweaters, hats, and cute jackets.
Aside from my wardrobe.... I like to make my home feel like the holidays.
Now, I usually get a lot of snide remarks about my holiday obsession, and I always get made fun of the entire holiday season. Here it is, I love snowmen. I think they are so cute, and the fatter the better. I have, I guess you could call it a collection of snowmen that I only bust out during Christmas.
It's hard for me to go a year without having someone give me a snowman something, or get one myself. I always say that Christmas throws up in someone's house, but it really looks that way once my small quaint apartment is filled with decorations are 88% snowmen.
I guess the strangest part of the whole "snowman obsession" is that I'm not a big snow person. Oh, and I've never made a snowman. Let me fix the first statement... I enjoy the snow, but the whole snow sport aspect stresses me out because I'm not good at them. And I don't like things I'm bad at.
So usually when people come over to watch a movie (which happens more around the holidays than any other time of the year... it's because I make yummy hot chocolate) they spend the first 5 minutes taking in all the snowmen before asking about it. I'll paint a picture for you... if you have seen the movie Dodgeball, remember the part where he goes to the girl's house and she has unicorns EVERYWHERE.... it's like that, but not as bad.
Who knew, hockey and snowmen for the girl who doesn't like to be cold....
