These lights taste like Lucky Charms
Weekly column is up.
A couple of weeks ago, holiday lights and decorations disappeared from the trees in Boulder. They’re still up in the apartment. Some of them aren’t seasonal — I have to use two strings of lights as extension cords for speakers in order to ensure that funk reaches all corners of my home.
The two seasonal strings, though, are still up in the windows. The Lady and I still turn them on with some frequency, too. It’s adorable denial, but as much as I like the lights, I don’t want to feel like I’m letting things get stale. That’s how out-of-season decorations always feel. Just looking at them, you can almost taste the gone-crunchy Christmas-tree-shaped Peeps.
