You know all the months and dollars spent preparing for Christmas?  The wonder, the excitement?  And then what happens?  I’ll tell you what happens.  It is all over in less than 20 minutes and you spend the afternoon burning boxes and going thru wrapping paper to make sure any cash and/or gift cards don’t make it into the trash can.  And you go find your sister in the blistering wind, wearing your grandfathers ‘foul weather’ hat and make a face that totally reflects your inner-self.

My inner-self thinks it is a gopher apparently.  Which is bad since my sister traps gophers.

I better watch out!
