usually for the stinkin holidays people put up a pic of a tree or funny lil statues.
so here's both.
(gasp) NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! (sniff) WHY?! ...why...
so my Christmas tree fell down today.
on my one year old son.
twice.
the first time i did catch it from falling all the way to the ground. kinda freaked him out. he cried. and for the record, the tree never really fell on him. he was mostly on the side. still made him sob. but he got over it and started playing with another toy pretty quick.
but alas, there were casualties.
2 out of 3 wisemen bought it. and some ornaments too. the ornaments were to be expected, but the poor innocent bystander wisemen from the nativity set, that was just sad.
i think i can save one. only his head fell off. clean cut.
but the other... well, his head broke into many, many bits, and i can't find his face. so it maaaaay be a lost cause.
aaaaaand here's a pic of the tree. it's leaning against the wall. waiting to be stripped of it's remaining ornaments and tossed to the curb.
so, let's recap:
i was sick through Cristmas day (pooped alot, when i wasn't sleepin)
The Godfather of Soul dies.
and the tree falls on my son. twice.
so yeah, i still dislike Christmas very alot.
p.s.
i did get away with boycotting Christmas for the most part.
this was probably the only year i can pull that off, due to wifey picking up the slack. but i can't get away with doing as little as possible concerning the holidays again. this was a one time stunt. but time will tell.
"there's a Festivus for the rest of us!!!"
