O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Treeee!

O Christmas Tree! O Christmas Treeee!

This is the worst it's ever been. We bought our Christmas tree on December 20th, 2005.

It is now April 11th, 2006, and the bloody thing is still sitting -- dead, sans ornaments -- in our living room. wildernessguru wants to burn it. He burns the Christmas tree every year, but he's never been this late.

I have been begging, pleading, that he get rid of the damned tree.

We've reached the point where we have to sneak it out of the apartment at night so the neighbors won't know. Personally, I don't care, I'm ready to throw it out the window. But WG cares what people think so now, now it's a production.

I'm afraid we (and by 'we' I mean 'he') will have to dress in cammo decorated with hedge trimmings to sneak the tree out the back.

I'm going to be posting daily humiliating updates until the tree is finally gone.

I am deeply ashamed to say you're months away from my xmas tree record -- Dec 12 to July 4. Of course the fact that we didn't have a tree stand and therefore hung the tree upside down from a hook in the ceiling may have had something to do with it. It wasn't actually in anyone's way and, in spite of having no water for just under 7 months, it managed to stay pretty green. I guess it was the hanging upside down that did it. My roomie snuck it out of the house at 3:30 the morning of the 4th and took it to a grocery store dumpster.

Wow. I thought my mom and I were the only folks that threw out christmas trees on July 4. Of course if we weren't cleaning the house for the 4th of July party, we probably would have left it up longer. *sheepish grin*

I have to tell my mom, because, really-? I thought she was bad, but we just topped her all-time record of March 31.

Oh, don't tell him. He will put it off.
