Comments on: My full-on confession of Christmas dorkitude… http://www.thebookladysblog.com/2009/12/18/my-full-on-confession-of-christmas-dorkitude/ Pin-Up Girl with a Reading Fetish Wed, 08 Feb 2012 14:43:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Frances Hunter http://www.thebookladysblog.com/2009/12/18/my-full-on-confession-of-christmas-dorkitude/comment-page-1/#comment-7501 Frances Hunter Tue, 22 Dec 2009 17:20:35 +0000 http://thebookladysblog.com/?p=3524#comment-7501 My favorite traditional Christmas song is "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day," especially after I found out how Longfellow wrote the poem after he suffered a disillusioning series of tragedies. It's the story of regaining one's faith, a wonderful song. My favorite modern Christmas song in recent years has been Elvis's "Holly Leaves and Christmas Trees." I guess I've been in a wistful mood. But I still like Frosty and Rudolph too!

(But I have to break it to you that Donnie was the hottest....then again, I've always had a thing for the bad boys.) And no need to be embarrassed about Hangin' Tough...I have the NKOTB greatest hits on my iPod....and I know the original dance to The Right Stuff. Thanks for joining in the confessions!

In a confession I may regret as soon as I post this, I'll let you know that "Hangin Tough" is currently and always will be on my ipod. Second, and so much less embarrassing, Christmas at my house starts the day after Thanksgiving with the collector's edition Elvis Christmas cd, complete with a pop-up Graceland proudly displayed on the mantle. Also, after having danced in it five times, I can't have Christmas without music from the Nutcracker. PS, just want to say in case I never have that I love your blog. :) First of all, Jordan was totally my favorite so it’s nice seeing him back in his prime with nothing on under the jacket.

They're missing one? Where was Jordan's brother, what's his name? Crap...I'm a horrible Bostonian not knowing. I think my favorite Christmas music is The Nutcracker Suite. It's dorky I know but I just love it. Happy holidays! Wait! They’re missing one? Where was Jordan’s brother, what’s his name? Crap…I’m a horrible Bostonian not knowing.
