I was Santa Claus last year at Walmart. Kids love me, but man, they hate Santa. This lady brought her kid towards me, kid was looking the other way, asked for a picture. Moved the kid towards me, the baby was giggly and happy, sucking on it's hand. Turned to see me...Hahaha. Lip quivered, eyes were like half dollars. Bawled nonstop.
The 'helper elf' had to take a bunch of quick shots, over and over, and find the one that looked least like the kid was screaming. Bahahaha. It was always huge ironic that Santa is the epitome of jolly but little kids act like he's going to eat their faces.

One day she's going to be a beautiful young woman and master the trick of using those tears to dilute and erode machismo.
ReplyDeleteOh, that's been accomplished.
ReplyDeletePlaying Santa at the church and asked the little girl 'What would you like for Christmas?' and she said sternly 'I told you at the mall!'

Dittos on the precious and top it with beautiful and priceless. God Bless.
ReplyDeleteOh. She's darling and precious and I love her.
ReplyDeleteWho is she?
ReplyDeleteAn old picture of one of the Olson twins?
ReplyDeleteCan't look at that pic without welling up myself, Rodger.
ReplyDeleteRoger.
ReplyDeleteWas it the Easter Bunny or was it "The Spring Rabbit"? If it was at the mall the Easter Bunny hasn't been used in years.
It's "Easter Bunny," "Christmas," "B.C.", "A.D.", and "Obama's a MFCSC" in the land of the Free and the Brave.
