Merry Christmas!
Christmas is a time for sharing joy and eating more than your fair share of treats cooked by those who don’t cook the rest of the year. You know who you are rock hard gingerbread man. ‘Tis also that time of year where deadlines loom over ever-shortened weeks the nights fill up with last minute preparation. Throw in a couple of lunch’s spent tracking down this year’s “it” toy and you’ve got the makings of a parking lot massacre. And by the way, does anyone know exactly what a Zhu-Zhu pet does or why in the hell every kid on the planet wants one? I digress…
So with all this “holiday cheer” going around, I find solace in the little things that make me laugh. Sketchy Santas for one, makes me laugh uncontrollably. It’s one of those sites you could kill a couple of hours on in no time. Another thing that I love these days is Super Mario for Wii with the lovely Mrs. Thornton. Playing 2-up requires a level of team work and patience, of which she’s barely capable. We make it work though.
One last thing that makes me laugh this holiday season… The video below. Epic.

Super Mario Bros for the Wii is amazing. We have played three player and it is pretty stinking messy.
Merry Christmas!
I have plenty of patience and am a total team player! How could I be married to you if I wasn’t patient ;o)
