Some of you may know I have a spider thing.

I’m a recovering arachnophobe — and I mean, seriously arachnophobic — and the fact that I’ve moved past this is one of the triumphs of my adult life. Perhaps I’ll post here some of my writing on this subject some time. But not today.

I have decided to eschew the song I had originally planned for today and save it for next year. In the past 36 hours, so many people have tagged me in this video on Facebook that I’ve decided to make it today’s post instead. We wish you a Merry Christmas.

Also, fair warning: spiders. (But really, really cute ones.)
