Odds and N's
I spent the last week sitting in a secluded section of my home celebrating my Christmas vacation. Using only four official vacation days I was able to squeeze out an 11 day weekend. I also had some help from President Ford, thanks to his death I was given an extra day off. I couldn't have done it without you big guy.
I hope everyone had a nice holiday. The floor around my Christmas tree gave the impression that several kids live in my home. That impression though would be one of great falsitude, the only kid in the house goes by the name of Geoff, and he is 25. Highlights from my presents, cue the music...Notorious B.I.G. figure, Shaun from Shaun of the Dead figure, numerous Batman figures, and a graphic novel which I am still waiting to get, though.
On a more serious subject...Last night we put our Christmas tree to sleep. He was a handsome little guy, he was our first. It was a tear-jerking night as we removed each ornament one-by-one...he was really brave. Since I am the strongest person in the house I was given the honor of taking him out to the sidewalk. It was really hard to see him like that, he was just laying there. Just a few hours before he was bright and colorful, and all Christmasy. We will miss him. We put all of his loose pines in a baggy, we are going to scatter them at the stroke of midnight next Christmas.
With the help of sleep I forgot the prior day's depressing events. So you can understand when why I threw-up out of horror when I saw the sidewalk lined with Christmas tree corpses. My neighbor at least had the decency to wrap his in plastic and tape like a mafia hit.
