Today at work, my coworker Laurie had her radio tuned to Christmas songs. About the second or third time I had to hear "Do You Hear What I Hear?" I pointed something out to her that even she--the woman who called me Grinchy last week--had to admit to.
"You know that part about how 'a child, a child, shivers in the cold. Let us bring him silver and gold'?" I said. She had already started laughing.
"Yeah," she replied.
"Well, how about someone brings this poor kid a blanket? Silver, gold, and a freakin' blanket? Or maybe a snowsuit for the baby Jesus? Try to be a little practical. You know?"
The woman had to have her baby in barn. Seriously, no one thought of A BLANKET??
