And that's bad why?

It's North-Rhine-Westphalia now and I was born there too, albeit in the North-Rhine part.

Don't usually alphas mate alphas?

I can't. I was too curious and looked him up.

Okay, now try to fill out a map of Europe. Including the capitals of course.

Ercolano, Italy

I find myself standing outside thinking 'It's exactly like that.'

In the past I called Christmas time hiking time. The family couldn't decide which traditions to celebrate, which resulted in each doing their own thing. They expected me to be there nevertheless so I walked around the city until I was finally at home around 11 pm Christmas Eve. Now we celebrate together, this year it's my turn. As we are the odd mix religion-wise we just do what we/the host likes. Which usually is Christmas Tree, dinner with the family and presents on Christmas Eve. When I'm the host this means vegetarian dinner of course, *snicker* Well I would cook meat/fish/birdies if someone couldn't live without, but so far everyone was okay with it as long as I made feta cheese pizza, fresh bread and tiramisu among other things. We play music, traditional and not so traditional christmas songs. Then there are the presents, mostly for the kids, after this the family members who want to go to Christmas Mass do that. Next year I'll dig a den somewhere outside the city and have my private Christmas. I need this once in a while.

Isn't it more important that the others know?

stupor

I think I tend to look somewhat disgusted when I get something I don't want/hate/abhor? Anyway, they always say 'Or if you don't want it I take it back and you can tell me what you want instead.' I always politely admit I'd rather want something else. If someone gives me a gift I like I don't care if they got it for free or payed for it.

Didn't you blog this list already? I remember after I read the list I skipped some of my favorite useless words OR used them with relish.

Do I hear you saying 'I'm not trying to be a hero. If you think I like this you're crazy.' ?

Thank you all! This was such a great surprise. You made me feel special.

Do I hear DDK's best parental voice?
