1. Do you enjoy the cold weather and snow for the holidays?

Yes, I suppose. I usually prefer it more when I have someone to snuggle with, but oh well...

2. What is your ideal holiday celebration? How, where, with whom would you celebrate to make things perfect?

Just with good friends, having a good time, I suppose. I don't mind the family too much, for all their flaws they usually come through when the going gets rough.

3. Do you do have any holiday traditions?

I used to get to open a gift on Christmas Eve once in a while when I hit my teen years (I think my parent's just get sick of the begging) and once my "sister" came along when I was 18, the two of us ganging up on my parent's really sort of cemented the tradition. To this day we still do it. Hmm, otherwise I don't know. My parent's usually eat Italian sausage on New Year's Eve -- they say it's an Italian good luck tradition (sort of like the black-eyed peas and collards deal in the South), but I think its just because they like Italian sausage!

4. Do you do anything to help the needy?

If I can, I will. Sometimes I'll donate food or clothes.

5. What one gift would you like for yourself?

Gah, I don't know. Something thoughtful, I guess. Music is always a good choice for me being the fan-nerd that I am. Still, I'm a bit like my father -- if I want or need something (and can afford or justify it), I just get it myself. That doesn't leave much for other people to get me, I'm afraid.
