The cookies were baked and shared with friends, family, co-workers, and Santa. Now there are just crumbs left.
The tree was selected, brought home, decorated (the cats "helped", one likes chewing on the lights), and surrounded by presents. With this began the hourly litany, "Can we open just one now?" Now it looks as though the tree barfed up a toy store (specializing in video games).
The turkey was roasted and picked to the bone.
As the excitement wears off and total exhaustion sets in, all that is left is the eternal question that echoes throughout households across the country...why doesn't the liquor store deliver?
