The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet To Come
So I saw a (fake) Christmas tree in a store window today and was trying to think of what I was doing at this time last year. Or the year before. Since I had to look it up on my blog, clearly I should accept that I am growing old but also, revel in genius of having blogged every mundane detail of my life for posterity!
But yes, Christmas. The end of the year, the end of the decade, all that. I’ve already tried reliving the past decade on Twitter through the #youtubedistractionday tweets (which have all magically disappeared from the website, oh no!). But while I do not foresee hours and days of free time in the next two weeks to blog ‘the best of 2009/the decade/etc etc’ lists, this is how I feel this year. I know its a year old – and was rather widely circulated last year (how many of those people had ever heard of Pearls Before Swine before? = .02%) – but here it goes anyway.
This also explains why I have turned to buying comfort food. I will only be concerned for my mental health once I start searching for Nice biscuits and drinking doodhsevenup*.
*(yes, milk mixed with 7up. yes, you read that right. yes, you must try it. no, i am not a crazy person.)
Wow – youre the only person i know who admits to drinking milk and 7Up. I much preferred doodh pepsi though. Doodh soda is also pretty good.
Screw eggnog.
The last time I had doodh pepsi was over 10 years ago – but I remember it to be quite good, though not in the league of doodh 7Up. And I have decided I must promote doodh 7Up, its a dying form of beverage. (Cue fancy social movement)
:O I don’t remember that strip at all.. Clearly I am getting old too.
And milk and 7Up? You are a brave, brave woman.
You MUST try it. Must must must.
That’s pretty funny and I don’t remember it either. And I thought doodhsevenup was a hot weather ramzan drink. I’ve never had it but I may well try it next ramzan.
I think I first had it in Ramazan too – but then I realized it was as awesome throughout the year.
doodh 7up was the only way i used to drink milk. oh good times.
how about CANDI biscuits?!
I ODed on Candi biscuits years ago and could never bring myself to like them again.
Wah, you made my day by reminding me of doodh 7 up. Now I will rush to the kitchen and make it. Shukriya bohot bohot.
