Why did I titled today's post "It's Raining Santas, Hallelujah!"??
If you know you know, but I'll give you a clue ……… think The Weather Girls.
So, what had happened was, walking into the Pain Cave yesterday morning, what did I see but another Santa.
One of Trainer's elite fighters had been volunteered, by his wife, to be Santa at their son’s school, so he popped in after to surprise Trainer.
Trainer was not in the mood.
After having had to help fend off a neighborhood crazy, causing trouble for Liquor Store Guy just minutes before, Trainer said that seeing Santa walk through the door, not recognizing him, his reaction was no reaction.
Said, he deadpanned and pondered what fresh hell could this be, until Santa spoke, said "It's me".
My reaction was like it always is when I see the big guy ……… fan girling, yelling "SANTA!!", and heading in for a photo.
This Santa was more than happy to accommodate my photo request, and from his manly proud pose, it doesn't look like he's minding at all that I'm climbing all over him.
Saturday is Breakfast with Santa ……… which will be my third Santa sighting this week, but the atmosphere will be don't touch, keep it PG.
I'll still jump around like a kid and yell "SANTA!!", when he shows up; but otherwise behave appropriately.
Popping into the market after yesterday's Santa sighting, I saw something that should be reported to the SPCE, Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Elves ……… Holly hidden away in deplorable conditions.
I protested ……… said to a store employee in the area that the poor thing was freezing to death; whereupon another employee spoke up and jokingly said, "She's from Canada. She can handle the cold".
I wasn’t buying it and walked away mumbling, "The poor thing".
Beefcake Santa? Yes, please.
ReplyDeleteYou should see this Santa in his workout clothes.
DeleteI think the elves are used to cold temps at the North Pole. I know one of my grandchild families found theirs in the freezer the other day - with ice cream for a bedtime snack!
ReplyDeleteI am just glad my own children were grown before the invention of the stuffed elf. Too much responsibility for me.
So cute that your grandchild's family is hiding their elf.
DeleteI agree with your statement about the Elf being too much responsibility!
DeleteLook at it as a fun responsibility.
DeleteI sure do know the Weathergirls! They were originally Two Tons of Fun who backed up Sylvester....one of my all-time fav's from back in the day ......when I was in discos till the sun came up....and sometimes went back down!
ReplyDeleteYou should have started singing "Santa Baby" as soon as Santa walked in (a la Eartha Kitt). Cool pic!

Sounds like you were burning your candle from both ends, back in the day. Good for you! I added Eartha's Santa Baby music to those photos in Instagram.
DeleteHolly the Elf looks on the verge of frostbite to me. LOL, that is one Butch Santa! And of course I know that gay anthem!
ReplyDeleteHolly needs to go back, warm up in the whiskey isle.
DeleteSooooooo, I wonder if Santa is going to give you any of your wishes from your list?
ReplyDeleteI don't think his wife will let him, LOL.
DeleteBeefcake Santa! And you climbed all over him. It’s a merry Christmas. Elf in a Cup wouldn’t look so sad if they weren’t stuffed in it.
ReplyDeleteI'd swear, she actually did have a sad look on her face.
DeleteIt is 3 degrees wind chill today in Kansas City. I will have nightmares of the Elf freezing in the ice. Weird spot; goofy employees having fun in the sun, eh? Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteI'm getting chills just thinking about Holly on Ice and the weather in Kansas City.
DeleteI looks like you were holding back on Santa.
ReplyDeleteHis wife trains at the Cave. She's a fighter, not one of the elites, but she's a fighter. Didn't want her coming after me, LOL.
DeleteCould be you're taking this holiday season a bit too seriously?
ReplyDeleteElf Lives Matter.
DeletePictures with Santa, I love it.
ReplyDeleteBeefcake Santa? Get it while you can!
ReplyDeleteIf only I could turn back my biological clock.
