    I can finally understand that because I watched “Elf” for the first time last week! I was trying to think of a movie to watch and not wanting to see one I had seen several times over, I “bit the bullet” and watched “Elf”. I heard so much about it, even from a friend who doesn’t really believe in Christmas. She told me before she left for her Christmas vacation, “you’ve got to see Elf”. Like Buddy, my cubicle transforms to a Christmas atmosphere with plenty of decorations. I wear jingle bells around my neck from December 1st until the last day of work before Christmas Eve. Everything is still up until after New Years (just like at home), but I put away the jingle bells. I know some people miss them.

    I love Christmas! I love the Spirit of Christmas! And I ENJOYED “Elf”! There, I said it.
