"shopping for friends"

Saturday, December 02, 2006 Filed in: my life | random musings

i'm bored and i'm in the market for some new friends that i can hang out with on regular basis. sitting around does not help with any of the things i'm dealing with. doing things does. plus, it's annoying and unproductive (or is it non-productive? i can't believe i used to be an English teacher.) just puttin' it out there.

by the way... i found this Christmas song about two years ago. it's by a guy named Ron Sexsmith (poor guy must have gotten made fun of a lot as a kid) and it's one of my favorites now... short, simple and great.

"Maybe This Christmas"

maybe this Christmas will mean something more
maybe this year love will appear
deeper than ever before

and maybe forgiveness will ask us to call
someone we love
someone we've lost
for reasons we can't quite recall

mmm... maybe this Christmas

maybe there'll be an open door
maybe the star that shined before will shine once more

and maybe this Christmas will find us at last
in heavenly peace
grateful at least
for the love we've been shown in the past

ooh... maybe this Christmas.
mmm... maybe this Christmas.

(this was the song played during the last scene in the Chrismukkah episode of the 2nd season of The OC... probably the best episode of that show ever.)
