Christmas Time Is Here by Vince Guaraldi

 Christmas time is here

Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
families drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
sleigh bells in the air
beauty everywhere
yuletide by the fireside
and joyful memories there
Christmas time is here families drawing near
oh that we could always see
such spirit in the year

turned this one on last night and me and sarah watched it. man. it is so rad. it's just so damn awesome. sarah was so sad for charlie brown. she doesn't understand why everyone hates him so much. I suppose i never questioned it. they just do. sad. cuz he isn't mean or lame. i also thought it would be rad if i ever got my license in psycho therapy to just set up a booth outside and charge people five cents to sit on a stool and tell me their problems.

This brings back a lot of childhood memories

We watched these shows annually for years

Always can put me in the Christmas mood

Poor Charlie Brown

There's a theory that all the Peanuts characters are actually patients in a mental hospital

Charlie Brown is a war veteran, with major trauma and he's in this mental hospital

His mind is so jumbled that he's in a childlike state and he imagines

~that all the other patients in the hospital are kids in his world

Lucy really has antisocial disorder, Linus is delusional, Schroeder has autism and so on

Every kid is actually a patient in Charlie's hospital

The reason you can't understand the adults (hospital staff) is because he doesn't want to acknowledge their existence

Even if this is true, they sure can celebrate the Dickens out of their holidays
