I have an evil cat who climbs up the tree and takes great joy in nibbling through the lights and removal all of the ornaments. He also keeps up all night kicking ornaments around.

I think I would like My Grandfather ... but not during this holiday week because I can sense it will make me melancholy. Never heard of it, so thanks for that, though. <br /><br />I too am looking forward to Gilmore Girls on Friday. I don't do the frantic sale shopping on that day-- only if it's online. I'm not into crowds. My daughter is off work on Friday so I hope we stay in our robes all day, eat leftovers and watch tv :) Enjoy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
