You’ve heard the expression “Make it Earth Day every day.”
It’s a nice sentiment, but trust me, your life will be way more fun if you make every night New Year’s Eve.

Just another rain-soaked day in the DMV. Seriously, the wettest year on record is only getting wetter today. This I can deal without.
But 61 degrees at the end of December?
This I can do.
See Mary Poppins Returns.

That enough of an endorsement?
This. Movie. Is. Good.
Almost forgot it was Monday…
Merry Christmas Eve, y’all!
Put on the yule log channel and cue up A Christmas Story.
Have the egg nog and Coca-Cola ready because you-know-who comes tonight!
I’ve said this many times before but it’s worth repeating each December. The weeks leading up to Christmas are my favorite days of the year, not just for the obvious reasons. The #1 reason I enjoy this time of year is that for a few weeks everyone acts the way I do. Party on a Tuesday night? No problem. Shopping at midnight? Every store is still open. Pump Christmas music 24 hours a day? Yup. Be in a total rush getting from one fun thing to the next? Yes, yes, and yes.
Make a lot of money, spend a lot of money, and have fun.
This is what Christmas life is all about.
The Center for Disease Control has released a new edict this week urging Americans to “Say No To Raw Dough!”
Is nothing sacred anymore?
This is the Nanny State taking it one step too far. Not letting us taste even the tiniest bit of raw cookie dough? At Christmas? Licking the spoon… this is what makes life worth living.
Keep your cellphones and your microwaves; I’m taking cookie dough.
A Redskins comeback win and Season Four of Fuller House available on Netflix? Greatest weekend ever? This truly is a Christmas miracle.
Now Santa, this could be the trifecta… bring back The Wonder Years on Netflix and it’s cookies to the ceiling at Chez O’Connell.
Instant classic last night from the Palestra in Philadelphia, with the Quakers of Penn defeating the Wildcats of Villanova, 78-75.
Notable? Yeah, the Wildcats hadn’t lost a Big 5 game in more than six years. Two national championships in that span.
College basketball gets no better than this:playing for city pride. Basketball’s a city game, no? Played in the Cathedral of College Basketball.
Just another Tuesday night in December.
This is why I love Christmastime.
You know what they say about poker… if you can’t spot the sucker in your first half hour at the table, you’re the sucker.
Same’s true in football.
If you can’t beat the worst team in your division… well, you can figure out the rest.
