What is the point of Christmas newsletters? I personally find the ones from people I don't know to be boring as I have no point of reference upon which to relate, and the ones from people I know to be redundant (because I already know what's going on) or inaccurate (because they're embellishing).
I know people try to put their best foot forward. Even I admit this when Austin tells me when he reads my blog and doesn't recognize the person writing. I mean, is someone going to try to make themselves look bad?
Also many times people cannot write. I remember one Christmas newsletter that was four pages long--all one paragraph. It was like a marathon getting through that one.
So here's my try. Short and sweet. Because most of the time I cannot remember anyway.
January: Utah for army training. Cold as hell.
February thru May: School. Four A's and a B.
June: Backpack trip. 2 wisdom teeth out.
July: Veg. I think.
August: Get engaged. Work at Walmart.
September thru December: School. Quit Walmart.
All year: broke and happy.
Merry Christmas everybody!
