HO! - HO! - HO!

It's crunch time, boys and girls of the world! I have one week to go!

Wellllllll, Santa's made his list and he's checked it twice.
I'm simply searching for feedback on a gift that's not nice.
If you received it once, even twice, I'll ensure not thrice!!

Let me know which gift you received that was your least-liked so that we can all have a Merrrrrrrrry Christmas!!

That lump of coal you left last year as you went up the chimney..ruined my oriental!!!

And I sure didn't appreciate the big gifts your reindeer left on my roof!

And hey big guy, I don't appreciate all those ashy footprints you always leave all over the cream colored carpeting.

Haven't you ever noticed the door mat right there on the roof by the chimney?
Well if you did use it guess by the time you squirmed your way down our chimney (I know, need to get the chimney sweeper out here) your boots are all dirty again.

So could you kindly remove your boots before exiting the fireplace? Thank you in advance Santa. :*

Santa, I really didn't like the replacement windshield wiper blades I got last year. Thank you for asking.

Apparently you are not supposed to give women anything that plugs into an electrical outlet.

Vacuum cleaners, for instance. Or Nintendo.

I can't remember ever being disappointed in a Christmas gift, though.

The shoes that were gorgeous but with waaay too high a heel. I know my legs looked good in them, but the look of pain on my face ruined the effect.

The coat that was wonderful in every way but the color. Does anyone really look good in Lime green?

I am easy to shop for, Tiffanys, Bulgari, Gucci, Burberry, .... I promise not to whine about anything from there :)

Santa, did I mention I wear a size 5 ring? 5 carats is good too :D

Oh big guy, also, remember that electric frying pan about 15 years ago? Not a good present! Even BAK has gotten the message on that!

And about that pair of aqua with orange dots painted long dangling wood earrings, what was that all about? Like you don't know my taste in jewelry?

And that huge brown plastic shoulder bag that year? Remember that? It was about 1985 I believe.

Santa, do you take perhaps a nip here and there during your travels? If so I can sure understand. I mean trying to cover the whole world in one evening with all that freezing weather in half of the world, a nip here and there is understandable but could you at least just eliminate the real bad presents. Just one special pair of diamond earrings, or a cashmere sweater, or round trip tickets to Italy, or a wonderful bottle of champagne would do it. You know big fellow, something elegant and special.

Sure hope you have to act together this year!!! P.S. From hints I have received I think your presents this year are going to be great!
