My kind of christmas story...

Christmas Story for people having a bad day....

When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the pre-Christmas pressure.

Then Mrs Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.

When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that
three of them were about to give birth and two others had
jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows where.

Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the
floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered. So, frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum.

When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drank all the cider and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom, just then the doorbell rang, and irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.

The angel said very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?"

And so began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree.

Worlds, they rise and fall, within your eyes...

Hmmm, I'm not really sure where to start, but I guess today is as good a place as any...

First I figure lets go with things that annoyed me....

1.  Apathetic people....really get a fucking life, nobody wants to hear your bullshit, I'm dead to the world, cries for attention...

2.  Stupid people....if you don't know what it is your looking for, I can't read your fucking mind, get a clue, figure it out, then ask...

3.  Crappy assed drivers....it's called a RIGHT of way, is that so hard to understand? Most of us know the difference between left and right by about kindergarten...

4.  Disrespectful people....I have opinions, you have opinions, they have opinions, he has an opinion, she has an opinion, the very least we can do is respect them, not agree with, just respect, it's not really that much to ask...

Ok we're done there, now lets go on to the things that made me happy, in a sad sort of way.

1.  I walked into work today in an incredible crappy mood, seeing one person changed my whole day.  It never ceases to amaze me that life works that way.  It completely brightened my day, and no it wasn't Meredith, but she does the same thing, but it still made me a little sad in a good way knowing that they are a one of those people that have a positive affect on your life but they will be gone again soon...

2.  This one is weird for me, I actually sang Christmas songs, whoa, back up the love boat there.  I hate, and I repeat HATE christmas songs, and the entire holiday for that matter, except the twinkly lights on christmas trees, but I put up some lights in my room tonight so all is well.  But yeah, I was singing carols all day today, annoyed the hell out of some people I'm sure, but it was fun.  But yeah, Christmas in general....we're not going to go there...

3.  The last thing that made me sad was a song, I actually teared up a bit, but that's not really surprising since I cry at just about any movie.  So yeah, I'm watching this TV show and I'm admitting that I am now addicted, but they picked the perfect song for a scene, and I heard the first bar and knew it and remembered a long past event and it was awesome and amazing and sad, and happy, and every other emotion you can think to apply to the situation.  And the best thing is that I would never in a million years have thought I'd hear that song in that situation...

So yeah, just wanted to get that off my mind, and now I have a novel calling to me from the other side of the room, and I'm rather excited to go read it....hope all is well to anyone who reads this...
