what the tree might be thinking

Sunday, November 26th, 2006

Well, it is now officially After Thanksgiving, so we’ve been working on Christmas decorations and all that jolly good stuff.

This year is the third year for our Christmas tree, and I’m still loving it.

After I got done setting it up and getting all the lights on it — 2500!!! — I bet it looked around, sighed in a very tree-like manner and thought, “Another year, another house. Can’t these people just stay put for heaven’s sake?”

Christmas tree version 2006

the sunshine burnt my pants off

Incredibly Awake Shower-Refreshed Steven: “Come on, wake up; time to get up!” *commences with lighting of lamps and opening of blinds*

Half-Awake Me: “Mnnnnph”

Incredibly Awake Shower-Refreshed Steven: *more happy happy sunshine language* “Let’s get up”

Half-Awake Me: “No.”

Incredibly Awake Shower-Refreshed Steven: “If you don’t get up I’ll take your pants off.”

Half-Awake Me: “No, you won’t ’cause you don’t have the BALLS.” *evil, knowing glare*

. . . . . . .

I don’t think my pants have ever come off so fast.
