My Holiday is Complete

First off, Xmas shopping is done. I braved the barbarian hordes and (somehow) refrained from drawing blood. I foolishly put off the online shopping too long to make delivery deadlines.

Today I walked the Midget to school. Suddenly he started running.

“Where are you going so fast?” I asked.

“I have to outrun the Krampus!”

When I got control of my laughter, I asked him “Who told you about the Krampus?”

“You did!”

Oh. Yeah. I did. I assured him that the Krampus only takes bad children and that Santa wouldn’t let him hurt good children. The Midget says Santa’s not strong enough, so he’ll have to fend off the Krampus himself.

Rock on, little man.

Finally, I spun up “Ding, Fries Are Done!”

Yes, my differently-abled friend. I would like an apple pie with that.
