I don't know who is more tired this morning. Me, who locked myself out of my house, or my husband who asked me if I was able to get back in when he woke up and I told him the story. In our living room.

Me: Please bring wrapped new items for our charity gift drive.
Person who can't read an email: I have a garbage bag full of used clothes that were recently home to a family of racoons that I don't have time to wrap so I'll just drop it somewhere inconvenient. Also, the racoons are still in the bag.

Me: No, but I would have lied I was closer.

Since my brain is not cooperating, please enjoy this Christmas fic from 2 years ago which was my first one shot.
It's an ode to A Christmas Carol and contains what I think is one of the funniest things I've ever written, the roommate ad.

I had to have emergency surgery a few years ago. They wheeled me into the operation room while I howled in pain. I definitely had the wherewithall to price out potential costs and negotiate while being strapped to the table.

So, you know Beaker from the muppets? Let's say he is having a particularly bad day and goes to his local pub and the bartender asks, hey Beaks, cause they're friendly, what's got you down. His response.

On the morning of my FIL's funeral, my MIL almost fell down the stairs so I joked that we almost had a 2 for 1 deal. I am a person who uses humor to grieve so I absolutely get this.
Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.
