Lauren decided it was time for a Christmas tree.

And lo, the Christmas A-Series Swinging Christmas Tree, Gold it was. She laughed in the face of the poor fool who bought into the B-Series Non-Swinging Silver. Ho ho ho, ha ha ha!


JOY. Now for the unpacking and assembly. Ooo, shiny! So shiny, in fact, that Lauren was distracted for a full twenty minutes before unpacking the remaining effects.


Whatever shall she do? So complicated! So many pieces! So much construction to be done! Vex, vex, vex.


But Hallelujah! Pictographical instructions!


After consultation of instructions and a few calls with a contractor, up went the A-Series Swinger...


...and HARK! The spirit of the season officially started in Japartment-land! There was much rejoicing.

But did it actually swing?


And yes, Lauren was listening to Genesis throughout the building of her A-Series Swinging Gold Christmas Tree. Who better than to get one in the Christmas mood than Phil Collins?

How festive! So does the tree go to key parties to hook up with other trees' wives? Because it totally looks like it does.
