It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby cry

He tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I made my baby say goodbye

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on (river, sarah mclachlan)

i bought the christmas cd at starbucks because the ones in the previous years have been pretty fun, solid collections. i have had this song (the first song on the cd, so i haven't really listened to the others yet!!) on repeat for the past few days. it's sung in such a sad, yet calm voice and i love to attempt to sing along in my car. hee hee!! it sort of stinks because it reminds me that i have no guy to love me on christmas. oh well. maybe if i'm a good netties, it will happen next year.

this week has been super fast for me. work just flies by, and i'm having the greatest time. i'm learning a lot about my job, and trying to take on a bit to show that i'm badass. but you all know the truth. ;) giggles!! the people in my group are the coolest, and i'm so blessed to have this opportunity. on that note, i'm also a bit tired cause i worked kinda late last night getting things organized, and i'm totally pooped. i should probably hit the hay cause i feel like i have a million things i want to do. i've got to buy some presents for my mom, from my dad, clean my room, go to michelle's baby shower on sat, sharks game with erik that night, and baking with the roomies on sunday. i swear, there is no rest for the wicked.
