Christmas Eve post #2, in which I still don't really talk about Christmas

The internet can make you smarter. I was on YouTube, searching for a video. I found something that was sort of related, but that wasn't what I was looking for, then that led to another thing, then another thing, and I saw something on the side, and I eventually found what I was looking for, and now I'm on Wikipedia reading about "signing statements", the Free Hugs Campaign, canons, counterpoint, "The Art of Fugue", and chords. And reading on Wikipedia always leads to more reading, with all their links and such. So by the end of tonight, I shall have gained knowledge that I would have otherwise had no clue about because of the internet! Sweet, eh?

Aurora's asleep, Giselle and Jothan are supposed to be in bed, Da's asleep, and Mum's vacuuming. The house is clean, the trees are pretty, and the snow is mounded up outside. It's nice. We watched "Scrooged" and I got all warm-and-fuzzied by Bill Murray's speech at the end. And here I go, looking stuff up again. IMDB this time. Didja know that he's gonna be in "The City of Ember" and will be a voice for "The Fantastic Mr. Fox"? I didn't even know they were making a movie out of the last one. Have you guys read those books? They're good. I love reading. If you're reading the right book, it's a better escape from reality than TV or video games, I found out. I tried playing video games last night for the first time in a LOT of months, and it just wasn't fun anymore, and it didn't shut my brain off like I wanted it to, like they say it does. Liars. But then I read Harry Potter and my mind was totally focused on that. 

Well, Imma go back to my Wikipedia info-gaining. They should come up with a verb for that. "Gaining knowledge by reading Wikipedia." Like "Googling".

Enjoy your Christmas Eves, and your Christmases!!
