Christmas Eve

     So, it's Christmas Eve, therefore Balthazar and I have been having a lot of fun.  Using magic, I made us match the season, casting a winter spell on both of us.  We flew around the mountain of Acer (don't try to find it) and decided to decorate it.  It was a very enjoyable experience.

     Balthazar isn't usually very fond of the cold, but he is able to keep pretty warm when he needs to.  This is usually pretty practical, but it is a problem when he keeps melting ice and snow all over the place.

     While we were on the mountain, we were visited by some ice fairies.  I don't see fairies too often, but when I do, most of them get along with Balthazar quite well, as he is a peaceful dragon, but for reasons that are understandable, these fairies aren't as happy about his presence.  They were very cross about him melting some of the ice and snow, and one of them flew up and kicked is nose.  of course, this didn't hurt him, but it made him a little sad.  He's a very young dragon, and still quite sensitive.  I politely asked the fairies to leave him alone, and told them that we would be on our way, but they started tugging on my hair.  Feisty little creatures, they are.  Balthazar didn't like this one bit.  All he had to do was inhale loudly and the fairies backed away.  Balthazar and I finished up some final touches on the mountain, and then we were off.

    No orc attacks today.  Perhaps they will let me get through Christmas without having to kill them all.

    I also traveled back to Victorian London briefly.  Balthazar didn't want to come.  he hates struggling to fit into the TARDIS door.  It's awkward when he's half way through, as the inside is bigger.



     In almost regular life, I always open one present on Christmas Eve, and this year that present was a pair of these amazing unicorn slippers.  They are so delightfully fluffy.

 I also watched A Charlie Brown Christmas, which is great.  Most people don't know that the entire thing was written in a week, and created very quickly.  It also got very poor reviews before it went on TV.  Critics were surprised when it was the second most watched show the week it was released 1965, beaten only by Bonanza.

Anyway...Merry Christmas!






Seriously,
