On the 24th DaY of TiZmas


On the 24th DaY of TiZmas, TiZ reveals to you...

24 things that WERE Christmas...*


Deadly homemade gifted peanut butter cups
Connecticut
Family
FaceTime
I SAW THREE SHIPS a la Jimmy Fallon and the Roots
Huge slabs of perfectly grilled beef with naught potatoes
Champagne
Dogs...here and past
Dog gifts
Gifts for warmth and sustenance
Breakfast casserole
Fierce games of Jenga
Bax's eyes healing
Kind commuters
Stuffing Ezekiel's stocking
Shirtsleeves
Ornaments and decorating an absconded Christmas tree
A no-spill sippy cup Holiday Omen
Friends
The Harry Simeone Chorale
Seeing an 8 year old friend star in The Nutcracker
A White Elephant Party where it felt appropriate to take candy from a baby (and I had to drag him       across the floor to do it).
Becoming Frodo (I bear the ring...the greatest gift of all)
Meeting 6 year old Justin on the subway who was Christmas Spirit personified...full of warmth and sharing all he had.  He took my breath away.

*Full disclosure - I wrote this after my Christmas night performance and pre-dated it for consistency.
