i hate christmas. i really do. part of this may stem from having lived in a town called north pole for several years where the light posts are painted like, i shit you not, candy canes, and there is a man there who has legally changed his name to kris kringle (he works at pizza hut during the off season) and the other part may be because i am simply a horrible, hateful person.
however sometimes random acts of kindness make me feel differently.
case in point, i have just recieved a wonderful card which will help me buy new pants (to replace the ones i ripped getting INTO my car) from a wonderful person a million miles away, completely unexpected. it warms my heart meats to learn that there are still genuinely nice, caring people out there. warm enough to get a mini tree for the cats to destroy, now the only holiday decoration in the cabin. (<3 theac)
i've been away for a bit so i have no idea if this is an existing thread already but anyone care to share their own little stories of joy?
(and mikey, stop leaving creepy footprints around my outhouse, i can put a lock on that one too )
