Notes for this week:

1. My childhood Christmas centered around the Imaginary Friends record. Come on...Sunflower Joe, Hector, Ethelbert the Elf, Harvest Moon Garden Party???? It really didn't get any better;
2. Dear Sonic Youth: If every Christmas song had screaming and feedback I'd be a total fan;
3. The Juliana Hatfield song made famous in the Christmas episode of My So Called Life when Angela meets Juliana in an empty classroom at school and she turns out to be the ghost of a runaway girl and Ricky ends up homeless and then Angela has a big fight with her mom cuz she wants to invite homeless Juliana home for Christmas dinner and then she runs away from home and goes looking for Ricky and finds him in an abandoned warehouse along with the Juliana ghost so she gives ghost-girl her new boots and ends up at a church with Ricky and Mrs. Chase comes down to get them and meets the Juliana ghost outside who tells Mrs. Chase how her and her mom had one of those fights that feels like the fight is having you and the Mrs. Chase goes into the church and finds Angela and Ricky there and they have a big teary reunion........sigh, so good.
