Life in the Cheese Drawer

i’m not a church going person. i go two days a year basically, with some random days scattered throughout. this year i’m missing christmas eve mass, which i really do enjoy. the christmas carols, the fact that everyone dresses up, the familiarity of the readings and the gospel. it’s just a nice time of year for church.
the highlight, however, is when one of the choir members sings "o holy night". it’s something i look forward to every year because she hits that high note and it’s absolutely spot-on, tone wise, and just clear as a bell. it gives me goosebumps and just about brings tears to my eyes it’s so lovely. i’m sad i’m missing it this year.
i hope everyone has a merry christmahannukwanzaaka. and happy festivus for the rest of you.
