speakin' of white christmas lights......all my life my mother despised colored lights......as a kid i wanted colored lights, but had to make due with white lights only......and the tree, very uber elgant....no gay ass ornaments......

anywho, never in my life did we ever have colored lights.....and now, the front lawn: white lights on the hedges, two big ole spot lights lightin' up two huge trees in our yard (purdy kool lookin' with ice hangin' off the branches) and one tiny lil' pine tree with COLORED lights......WHY?!

i asked my folks why, after all these years, they finally bought one strand of colored lights and lit up one fuckin' tree in the front yard.....said they're too old to really give a shit anymore......

it's quite possibly the most heart wretchin' christmas change since we got a fake christmas tree.....
