Christmas Time Entry
Once upon a time there was a young lady named Sarah, who was probably not quite as young as she acted or felt, but who can really measure mental age accurately? She had a loving boyfriend and lived with her equally loving, though in an entirely different context, aunt.
The evening of the 23rd of December was to be a giant party at the boyfriend's house! But oh no! The boyfriend had caught the plague, or something else of a similar nature since he did not ever visit the doctor and thus it could have been a passing case of ebola and we'd never know. He was sick-sick sicky-sick! Yet the house for the party was very very messy!
"We can't have a party if we can't see the floor," Sarah cried!
From the heavens above came Blue and Bowie and Sean! "LET US HELP YOU TO CLEAN," They cried! Sarah wept tears of gratitude, or she would have if they'd had time for such things. There were only 3 hours til the guests were to arrive!
Mighty feats were done that night, and much clutter banished. The impassable was made passable and the inscrutable was scruted. Comics, toys, laundry, belts, shoes, games, wires, art supplies, dust bunnies, and tiny civilizations were removed and relocated to their proper places. Verily, the Augean Stables had never seen such a whirlwind of tidying might.
A moment of silence to those who fell in the fight: One Canister-style Vacuum cleaner. (It'll be okay, though. It just needs more bags. We used them all.)
VICTORY!
There was party! And it was the awesome. Kevin, the afore-mentioned 'boyfriend,' threw a smashing party.
There was much goodness.
Thank you for everyone who came out. Merry Christmas, a day late, but deeply felt.
:D
more on the rest of christmas later. promise.
