It's no John Riggins Jersey

I love Christmas. I love opening gifts and watching others open their gifts.
Ryan was sick on Christmas, and I didn't see him until Wednesday night. I gave him my present and he said "I'll save it until I get yours." I was a little disappointed that he didn't have a gift for me yet, but I'll live without a gift. Christmas is about giving.

Last night I stopped by and my gift to him was still sitting on the table. I had the urge to open it myself because I love opening gifts. I told him to just open it, and he did. I gave him the 4 pictures of Baltimore in the 50s. He was really excited about them. They're 8x10, and they are all black and white. His favorite is the picture of a full house in Memorial Stadium. We laughed about it because everyone is sitting calmly in their seats and the women are in dresses and the men are in suits with hats on. People in the 50s were so proper.

I think I might have to order some photos for myself because they really are good pictures. We're going out to dinner Saturday night, and I hope I have a great present to open beforehand.

I'm going into work late today because it's Friday. I should be able to get a few things accomplished since no one will be there. I also want to read my book. I'm reading Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and so far, it's really good.
