    So I've been a little off-and-on "meh" these past few days, along with a little cold.

    Now I'm watching Christmas movies like a total dork. Anybody else do that? I love watching them when I'm down-and-out and feel like a movie-version of a hug. :p

     

    Right now, it's National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. :p

    Oh I totally agree!!!  I love Christmas and would definitely watch Christmas movies out of season.  National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is one of my favorites.

    I try to restrain myself, since "saving" Christmas movies for Christmas time makes them a bit more special, but I'm not gonna lie -- if I'm having a bad day, "Elf" and "Muppet Christmas Carol" will cheer me right up. 

    I'm also guilty of listening to Christmas music on my iPod when I'm feeling down -- in college and grad school I used to listen to Charlie Brown Christmas on repeat when studing for endless hours in the library.

    I tend not to like "traditional" Christmas movies.  Every year on Christmas Eve, my sister and I watch Home Alone and Gremlins ;o)  They both have Christmas in them!

    And other ones, but yeah. I pretty much just love movies. :p

    I'm sick (waaaaaaaaah!) and I really wanted to watch Christmas movies last night and Fred Claus was on. I woke up ten hours later.

    So much for that. 

    We picked up The Proposal today so I can lay in bed and be gross and wish I looked like Sandra.

    It snowed in MN a couple days ago, and was definitely cold enough to snow this past weekend when I went home to visit my parents... who were listening to Christmas music.

    Haha I was just about to put one on!!!

    I love Christmas movies. If you haven't checked out Patrick Stewart's version of "A Christmas Carol", I HIGHLY recommend that you do. Pure gold!

    Other than that, there's a special from forever ago called "Muppet Family Christmas" that incorporates all branches of Muppets, including the Fraggles! I haven't found it on DVD yet, but you can see it in five parts on youtube.

    I've been known to do that. But I do have to say that October makes more sense than the middle of July when I've seen marathons of Xmas movies and tv episodes played on various cable channels. Then again, I can listen to Christmas music year round so the movies aren't that much different.

    I admit - this might be me! I love Christmas movies. As a matter of fact, the time leading up to Christmas is more exciting than Christmas itself! I usually wait until after Halloween, but then I faithfully haul of "Muppet's Family Christmas" each year. Fozzie visiting Mrs. Bear at the farmhouse with all his friends? Hilarity ensues!

    I also love National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Acutally, my fiance just admitted to me this past year that he has NEVER SEEN IT. (*insert jaw drop here). You can bet what movie we will be watching this Christmas!

    I've really been wanting to was Love Actually lately, but I've been trying to hold off so I don't go and watch all the Christmas movies before Thanksgiving.....I might give in and watch that one though ; )

    All time favorite: A Christmas Story.....my sister and I used to watch the 24 hour marathons on christmas.

    I love watching Christmas movies!  Home Alone is my all-time favorite, but Elf is a close second.

    I watch Little Women (1994) all  year round, no joke! I just love it... I especially love the music. Not technically a Christmas movie i guess, but it sure was heavily marketed that way.

    Hey you have an awesome computer Christmas movie collection!

    Serendipity = some good John Cusack lovin'. 

    Also guilty of Love Actually repeats, and occasionally Harry Potter for that snuggly winter feel.
