I'm so happy. I finally, just today, got in the Christmas (or Christmakkah - right Kresk?) spirit. I'm so happy it finally got here. I think a big reason I finally got in the spirit was due to all of the delicious cookies at work today, and also because my friend George gave me a homemade Christmas mix. Now, I am not a big fan of most Christmas music. In fact, I'd like the inventors of that stupid BBF station that plays all Christmas music 24 hours a day to get the Clap. But, George picked some really fantastic music that just happens to have a Christmas theme. It's great. It even has liner notes!

Well, the Fs had an exciting week this week. For one, Holly's birthday was on Wednesday. We met Holly, Rebecca, and Melissa out at Mex for a cocktail. Where was Mike, you ask? Well, he had to stay home, because he was getting ready to defend this thesis the next day! I've only heard the preliminary reports, but from what I know, it went very, very well. His advisors even bought him a cake and a bottle of champagne, if that's any indication of how awesome Mike is at talking about brains and other doctor stuff.

So, congratulations Dr. Mikey "Steamboat" F! We love ya! We're heading over to Mike and Holly's for a holiday celebration tonight, and I'm thinking there will be some exciting photo opportunities.

I hope you're all in the Festivus spirit!
