X-mas woes

Someone was whistling a Christmas song. Now I've got one on my brain.

"We wish you a merry Christmas
(repeat endlessly)
And a happy new year!"

We had our Christmas parade on Saturday. Our little town has a huge one. I'm not really into most parades, but it goes by my house, and my mom was over to watch it. So I look out, and there was a guy in a Santa suit, handing out candy from a big sack. When he turned around, he had "Gore-inch" in big letters, sewn on his back. What an asshole! Way to bring partisan politics into a fun community event. Aside from the partisan thing, it was a jarring reminder of the real world. Thanks a lot, asshole.

Yes, there were a couple of e-mails going around with poems about the Goreinch who stole christmas. I just figured everybody would know what I was talking about.

Blonnie, please don't say your stupid. Usually, when somebody says that, I just roll my eyes and say, "yeah, whatever," but for some reason, today it really bugged me. Even if I had been clear about it, you wouldn't have been stupid. In fact, I happen to know for a fact that you're not stupid.
