The Holiday Spirit....Gone?

Every year, for the past four years, I rack my mind for the perfect witty and sarcastic comments to create a very fine fake Christmas letter. You see, I grew up in the family of the "brag letter". You all know what I'm talking about...the letter you get every year from such and such part of the family that talks about how wonderful everyone is, how their kids are the smartest and best athletes in the world, etc. My mom, no matter how hard we tried to stop her, likes to write a brag letter for Christmas.

When I was living with my cousin HH in college, we got to reminiscing about said brag letter, and so my fake Christmas letter was born. This year, I had no energy to write the fake Christmas letter. For those of you who know me best, this is a tradgedy. Also, for those of you who know me best, I've been a giant headcase for the past month at least, as I waited to hear about a job.

Well, I got the job and have no fear.....a New Year's letter will be coming.

So dust off your reading glasses, I hope to live up to the standards I have set in Christmases of yore.
