Tis the season! Well at least to half the hemisphere of this planet heh.

The time when snow falls down to clog the highways, and when people are joyously entertained....by first-timer ice-skaters. Time for hot chocolate and eggnog; Depending on if you have a sweet-craving or want to get tipsy (who spiked the eggnog??).

The time for all that get/giving wholesomeness. Where people dress up a pine tree, or whatever tree they can get their hands on, and place wrapped gifts under it (From a "certain" experience, I don't know if these pine trees have offensive capabilities to protect said-gifts, but it's the only way I can make sense of why you'd leave them out in the open like that for kids to get an early start on things).

Though I don't think ALMA is the holiday-loving-type considering my attempts to filch a few things from her have me either ending up in the medical bay or getting shanghaied into sweeping up those loose pine needles from that pine tree she was studying...
All I know is I'm going to chide ALMA into fulfilling that "giving" portion of the holiday for research purposes. Not that "I" have to worry about the giving part...what the heck do you get a huge positronic brain as a gift??
