Hi, my friends! As I will not be able to enter EC during a few next days, I'd like to post this blog today hoping that some of you will have a free minute to read it.

Well, tomorrow is Christmas Eve, the night of miracles, magic, goodness, love, hope and much more. Being non-religious, I love Xmas, one of the brightest, happiest holidays in our Western world. These days make me recall my teenagehood, my youth and this blog is going to be a kind of Christmas/New Year joke. I'd like to give some recommendations about how not to meet a problem celebrating these holidays. Please, take it easy, I am just kidding!

1. Champagne is a must on these days, but if you feel like your partner's having had already too much, KEEP A BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE IN SOME WARM PLACE FOR SOME TIME AND UNCORK IT SHARPLY TARGETTING HIS HEAD FOR HIM TO REFRESH.

2. If you want to have some wine but you don't have a corkscrew, use the following technique:

a)It is not dangerous and is good when you are at the picnic, for example, and have forgotten a corkscrew at home. I tell you, Tanya can do it easily and it was her who taught me that way. First, you should take off a plastic cork and it is very easy to do with a knife. Just cut it off starting from the bottom of a plastic cork. Then, you will need some blunt metal thing like a fork's or knife's handle or something like that. Long narrow keys are also good. Put a bottle straight up on some sturdy plane surface and push a cork inside with the help of a handle.

b)It is dangerous! Wrap a bottom of a bottle with a towel. Holding it aflat in the left hand, start hitting the bottom with your right palm until the cork starts going out. But be sure to stop in time to save your wine in! I can also do it hitting a bottle against the wall. It was Tanya's ex who taught me to open wine in such a way. Hahahaha! Slavs are so inventive! Americans have to rest when Ukrainians come onto the stage!

3. If you like to use fireworks, be sure they will not burn down your house  or your next year problem will be looking for a new place to live and paying debts.

4. If you like to meet New Year nacked, be sure to blind your windows or don't be surprised seeing yourselves in the network the next day.

5. If you have a pat, don't forget it sometimes needs holydays, too.

6. If you are expecting alian guests, don't forget to prepare an "air field" for them.

7. If you feel like being crazy and spontaneous, loving and affectionate, if you feel like singing loudly, dancing ridiculously and doing a lot of other things you don't usually do, JUST DO IT!!!!!

8. If you are on hangover in the morning, you can come to 

a) looking into the mirrow asking yourself : "Who is there?" or "Where am I?". It means you need some more more drink to come to as you are out of here.

b) looking into the mirrow thinking:" Well! It was a great party!" You need some rest, for sure!

c) same situation, but you like to feel normal: just take a contrast shower and have something sweet, preferably cream cakes with very sweet tea if you are able to do it.

d) the best scenario: you wake up (at least you think so), don't even open your eyes and think:' The feast must go on!" and go to sleep again!

It is just kidding and I wish you all to find some special gifts under your Christmas or New Year trees. They should be special for you only. And if they are, it means that you are not lonely, that you are loved by those who are around.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!

  • Hahaha! I have missed it! Great! But, darling, you have forgotten to say that "The feast must go on" is a phrase from Russian famous movie. It is your favorite scenario, no questions, especialy in Kiev, isn't it?

  • No problem, dear!

  • Thanks dear Danny. I am sorry, I have forgotten ..... but now:  my belated congratulations for Tanya's birthday.

  • Dear Rose! Thank you so much! For me, Xmas is exactly what you say. Besides, it is my wife's birthday and I am happy that being  confirmed atheists we can celebrate Dec 25 every year! I am correcting your fairy tale now.

    Sorry, I had some connection problems here. Will add when I am done.

  • Hahaha, very funny... there isn't anything to add.

    Christmas isn't just a religious festival ... also for us non-religious people are the days of Christmas a time to pause, to feel the magic of those special and unique days. But we shouldn't forget to have fun, too. The candles on our Christmas trees want to show us our future with giving hope... every single years again. With our partners, our families, friends and everyone we love or like, should we enjoy common time. Our time runs faster than we want, let's take a rest.
     
    Everyone has his own memories of Christmas and we should keep it always in our hearts, nobody can take away our memories and even people, they we have lost in the past, will be alive again when we remember them.

  • Dear AG! Thank you very much! I know you don't celebrate Christmas, but good portion of humor is not out of place anyway! Enjoy your tea and cakes!

  • lol, Thank you so much, Dear Danny for your bunch of nice wishes and ideas.. Well, to me and as I don't drink or have new year celebration, I would like to go for the "feel normal" suggestion, So I will be expected having a sweet cream cake with a cup of red tea and enjoying the calmness of my night :) 

    I wish you all a prosperous and happy new year ^^ 

    Thank for the nice invitation, Mr. Danny :)
