Christmas time...

...mistletoe and wine. Yes, Christmas is finally here. So first off, I wish you all a very Happy Christmas wherever you are! May all that you wish for come true.

In Malta, winter decided to start with a vengeance today on Christmas eve. It rained really hard but what was somewhat unusual was the really strong hailstorm which lasted for quite some time, with ice as big as those nasty white moth balls. I pity anyone who happened to be outside at that moment. They would have gotten quite a bashing.

Now I don't usually have a problem with storms and rain as long as they're in season, and well obviously today they are. But it could have chosen somewhat better timing after days of sunshine, since tonight is usually reserved for the loved tradition of bar-hopping/pub crawl after mass from Sliema all the way to Paceville. Oh well, I shouldn't be grumpy on such a joyous night :D but well, whatever we decide to do, I hope to have a great night out with friends. And then tomorrow, it's a relaxed day in with the family, eating lovely food, watching movies, drinking mulled wine...

As for other things, on Friday we had the Christmas office party - really good fun! And today I decided to listen to my Chicago cd. I had forgotten how much I love that musical. Hotshot! Whoopee! And all that jazz!

Anyway, once again, Merry Christmas!
