Christmas. The only time of the year that women match up against either other, where the size of the opponent does not matter but the prize at the end of the fight. The time of the year where that prized Hokey Pokey dancing little redman is more important than keeping your composure in front of your 4 year old as you tell your child 'distract that lady by kicking her kid so I can get this out of her cart'
Ah....Christmas. Where else can you go down to the local Wal*Mart, free of charge, to witness the battle for the belt down in the electronics section as two grown women fight over the last DVD of Daddy Daycare.
Oh...yeah...Christmas. Getting flipped off by handicapped drivers ( no offense ) as they take 40 minutes to parallel park in those new parking spots while traffic has backed up 20 cars behind them just to get into that same Wal*Mart to grab a coated iron tank with a wobbly wheel, clip your ankles and knock over end-cap displays just to get back to the 50% off ornaments sale that just started today.
As you ponder your minds back to the meaning of Christmas, and then reflecting on your 4 hours at that local Wal*Mart, you remember that Christmas is a time of gathering with loved ones and sharing in the warmth of family and friends. This reflecting is usually over very quick. For some, it ends in the parking lot - getting that last word in to the kid that kicked your shin and then that 'dancin little redman' mysteriously disappeared from your cart.
For others.....it's done standing in front of dual frosted glass doors thinking to yourself, do I get a 12 pack, or a case, or should I turn around and just grab that Fifth of Captain Morgan and head back to that 24 Hour herding of crazed minded holiday nutz and re-enter the ring with a buzz.
So, as we stay up late, wrapping those prizes ( yes prizes, we did fight for them ) so that our gems, our kids, those bright eyes that remind us of why we go on each day living, can wake up and appreciate the holiday. We also lead those small minds to believe that a 300lb fat man snuck into our house, with no lights on, no keys, got past the doberman, ate all the cookies and drank all the milk but yet - left eight reindeer on the roof for 30 minutes but left no poop , placed those gifts there to show that they were 'perfect little angels' all year.
Those parents know that all that time, the months of planning, the hours herded in the lines at Wal*Mart, Toys R Us, Target, Kohls, the Mall and the liquor store come down to one thing, and one thing only. . . ..
20 Minutes of crazed, half awake, zombies TEARING THROUGH your hard work like thread holding back the running of the bulls. 20 minutes of paper flying, ribbons stuck to your head, tape stuck to the bottom of your foot and your patience DEAD by having to untwist 40 freaking twist ties holding in that one, single, dancing little redman just to see it hop once, sing, then fall over
I love this time of the year....can you tell ( hiccup )?
As I have tortured the english teachers with my run-on sentences and, yes, the occasional mispelling of the most easy words ( the captain made me do it ) I share with everyone my vision of the holidays. Some may say "hey, I was kicked too" or "I wish I knew what Brandee looked like, I think his kid kicked me" remember, it twas not me that kicked you but that 'angel' of mine
Enjoy the Holidays...tie one on for the big guy
