It's been a different, much busier Christmas season for me this year. As such, I didn't have much time to devote to A Very Micah Christmas (or this blog, for that matter), but it's done! While I didn't put the usual blood, sweat, and eggnog into it that I normally do, I didn't half ass it either. I'll have you know I used *at least* three quarters of my ass.
So what's on tap for this year's edition? I'm glad you asked:

You can snag it here.
But that's not all! If you act now you can stream (most of) it on Spotify:
Per usual, you're not getting the full experience there, what with it leaving out seven songs. But sometimes convenience trumps completeness.
And that's that about that. I hope you enjoy this year's mix. Merry Christmas! I'm going to take a nap now.
