tonight was the christmas concert. it's funny how something you've sung a hundred thousand times before can mean something different when you glance up in the midst of it to see your mother weeping.

afterwards, pursuit of decent food was thwarted by the local burger king because my diabetic mother was sure her blood sugar was crashing. i'm on to her... she really likes whoppers. it was a scam.

during dinner we discussed the book of revelation and those dancing santa statues that we've all come to love and appreciate over the years. nothing says holiday cheer like father christmas getting his robotic groove on.

also, the coffee at burger king is not as good as you might guess.
