the santa trip - part two

it was closed when we got there at 2:55

and

we seemed to be

the only ones looking like

we were looking for santa

-

the sign said he'd be back at 3pm

and over the next five mins

the line grew and grew and grew behind us

-

waiting sucks

you can ask those people about it

cause they

had to wait for us

emily entertained mason

for that short period of time we waited

and

was particularily proud of herself

when she made him smile

then

santa claus

and his fembot wind up toys

arrived

fem-bot number one

opened the gate

and said

let me pose for a picture

or something like that

but

her festive little eyes

said something more like

-

pssst

-

daddy?

wind me up?

wind me up tight...like santa does

-

i let her look into my eyes

said nothing

and she understood

that there could never be anything between us

cause sweet jimmy's got a

red hot

elfen-type bear thing

dancing under his mistletoe

a little further along the way

they have these magic christmas glasses

which don't look so cool dans la tete

but

they make the world

look like this

-

last year i kept mine

so i could wear them

on special occasions

like

when i'm lit up

like

a christmas tree

ho ho

yes siree

under the influence

-

anyway

the kids got kerplunked on

apathetic santa's lap

we snapped a few pictures


and that's
how it went down
-
apparently they're going to email us a link
to a video
of emily's visit with santa
-
it's free this year
at the
oshawa center
