Dear Universe,

Yoo Hoo ... Need a little help here.

Will the entity that burgled my Christmas Spirit kindly return it?
Promptly.
Time is running out and I do have children, ya know.

If this is some kind of joke, I consider it cruel and not funny.
Get my drift?
Now bring back my spirit, dammit.

perhaps you need some inspiration a la "biology 101."

a good idea, regardless of the season.

Tough call space, there seems to be some kind of symbiotic relationship between spirit and inspiration.

I wonder. What inspired the Grinch?

I need a Whoville miracle. And quick.

maybe some riesling would get the ball rolling...

p.s. i'm intensely curious what kind of post got deleted...

;-)

Bon said...

Did the Who's down in Whoville drink Reisling?

Hmm. I must HAVE missed that scene.

But hey if it works for them, who am I to question Cindy Lou and her peeps?

Bon, I wasn't gonna comment on this one, but as the day grows nearer, I just have to say it: Suck it, up!!! You can do it!! Find that freakin' holiday spirit.

On another note: T, I just bought a pair of horridly tacky sparkly jeans and quite frankly (as little Bon-let can probably testify), they rock. Everyone should have a pair...

Bon said...

T,
If only I had a pair of sparkly jeans!

Bender,

It just ain't there!
It's not like I'm not trying.
Trust me, the trimmings are in place, the lights are a-sparkle, the gifts are wrapped, the cookies are baked and the carrots are awaiting Rudolph's arrival, but still, there just ain't no there, there.

spaceneedl said...

well...? did you locate your holiday spirit?

Bon said...

nope, not so much.

spaceneedl said...

okay, where have you looked, exactly? it's gotta be around somewhere.

retrace your steps...where did you have it last?

Bon said...

I'm telling you, I can't find it!

spaceneedl said...

hint: it'll be in the last place you look (mostly because once you find it, you stop looking).

also, when you expect it least, expect it most.*

* note: these are free bromides, and worth every penny.

Bon said...

Oh no, once I do find it, I'll keep looking around wondering why.
Why was it missing in the first place?
If it was there all along, why didn't I see it?
Why did this happen to me, of all people?
What's the big meaning?
etc ...
But I'm telling you, I have looked and I just can't find it and don't believe I will!

Note: Bromides are enjoyable whatever their value.
