I got to stop writing these kind of things. They always spark someone's imagination. Especially my wise guy brother.
He lives in California which is a long way away. Sometimes that is a good thing because he does love his practical jokes. Most of them are directed at me ;o(
I just got a package delivered by UPS . It was from my brother .
Open Immediately was written all over the box. I should have known better but I did as instructed.
Naturally the box was quite large with a gob of those Styrofoam peanuts in it. Fished around for a long time before I found some smaller boxes inside.
When I opened them , you guessed it he sent me
1. A Chia pet
2. A Clapper
3. A salad shooter
4. A CD with Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer on it.
So I guess the Christmas Season has now officially started here. Now all I have to do is put his Christmas card into that box, stuff all those peanuts back in and send it back to him. It will cost a bit more than regular mail but then I guess he is worth it. He doesn't get much snow where he lives and all those peanuts in his living room will remind him just what it looks like ;o)
