Tonight is the first night of chanukah and I have, so far, spent the evening 'figure skating' with my dad's side of the family... It was pretty fun, for about 10 minutes. Then I appointed myself onto photographer duty so that I had an excuse to stand still.
(To be posted soon)
I like when the festival of lights overlaps with the day of Christ's birth. It makes for a multicultural christmas up at my aunt's farm.
I enjoy making holiday compilations to listen to on the way up to Port Perry, hometown of Emily VanCamp, but I gotta say, the chanukah songs are terrible in comparison to christmas tunes. I think it's about time that Adam Sandler gets off his Christmas-making movie ass and writes another chanukah song...
In the meantime, here are the lyrics to Chanukah, Chanukah, the yiddish version:
Chanukah, Chanukah, chag yafe kol kach
Or Chaviv misaviv, gil l'yeled rach.
Chanukah, Chanukah, s'vivon sov sov
Sov sov sov, sov sov sov, ma na-im va-tov.
Or Chaviv misaviv, gil l'yeled rach.
Chanukah, Chanukah, s'vivon sov sov
Sov sov sov, sov sov sov, ma na-im va-tov.
on a more important note:
T'is also my darling sister Laura's 23rd birthday.
What a great 23 years it has been!!!!!
