“Hey, great idea: if you have kids, give your partner reading vouchers next Christmas. Each voucher entitles the bearer to two hours' reading time *while the kids are awake*. It might look like a cheapskate present, but parents will appreciate that it costs more in real terms than a Lamborghini.” ― Nick Hornby, The Polysyllabic Spree
Since my bearded man is away, I went to see this bearded man.My nephew Daniel took me to Woodburn, Oregon to take a photo with Santa Claus. It was super cold outside this tiny kiosk and I think I was the only adult guest to sit with Santa for pictures fo the day.
Trevor is still in Hawaii, so I decided a professional photo with Santa would cheer him up. It came out better than expected. I also went and made copies to send to my mom.
