A Weekend with Patrick

Saturday Six...

1. You're producing a school program for the holidays and you learn that there will be major objections if you include in your musical selections the traditional Christmas hymns that reference the "true meaning of Christmas." Assuming that there are secular tunes (like "Frosty the Snowman") already included in the program, what do you do with the hymns? Do you allow them to go as is, do you use the melody and rewrite the words, do you include as many pieces of music from other religions as possible, or do you remove all but the secular songs?

I keep the hymns and add a couple pieces from other religions.

2. What percentage of your Christmas shopping is done at this point? When do you expect to have it finished if you haven't already finished?

None but I'm making everything. I've gotta get my ass moving.

3. What was your favorite board game to play as a kid? Is it still your favorite now?

*thinks* Candy Land. Now my fav's Life.

4. Take this quiz (if you haven't already!): What famous artist should paint your portrait?
<br ="">Edvard Munch



Edvard Munch should paint your portrait.  You are a very emotional person.  You are always up for a good talk with one of your friends.  You don't like to keep things bottled up.  Often, you are friendly and outgoing, but that can change very easily to being introverted and cold.

5. How accurate is this quiz's description of you?

Wow. Damn accurate. The last part is a bit odd but fits mostly.

6. If you could go back in time and have one more picture taken with a deceased loved one, who would you select and why?

Screw the picture. I want the TIME to get to know them, to get to spend with them, to love on them. Either my great-grandpa, my uncle Randy, my dog Duchess, or one of my cats Smokey or Tiger.



Now for the Sunday Seven
THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:
What are your top seven favorite Christmas songs? Use ASCAP's list for an idea starter, but you need not pull your seven only from that list. Even if you don't celebrate Christmas, list up to seven holiday songs you like to hear this time of year.

1. Walkin in a Winter Wonderland
2. Christmas Carol
3. Christmas Shoes
4. White Christmas
5. Two Step Round the Christmas Tree
6. Mary Did You Know? by Kenny Rogers
7. Carol of the Bells

I could go on for days with this list!
