Angus is 6 months old today.

What does this mean?

1. Well, I haven't had a decent night's sleep in over 6 months (I stopped sleeping well about a week before he was born)

2. my life is completely and totally turned upside down

3. and... i love it.

Toy Sack, Baby, Toy Sack!

Angus was quite a fuss pot today on the ride to school and his distaste for the carseat could only be silenced by my scratchy throat bellowing Christmas Carols. After Jingle Bells, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, and Santa Claus is Coming to Town I started to run out of ideas and quickly turned to KOST 103.5 for some inspiration...

but to what should my wandering ears should appear, but Toy Sack; a Parody of Love Shack by The B-52s.

*sigh*

If you look up in the sky
On the night before Christmas
There’s a big fat guy with a
Toy sack
Toy sack yeah yeah

It’s squeezing down through your fireplace
Christmas Day
A million Barbie dolls packed away
Boxed up in a sack on a sleigh

That jingle bell parka is as big as a whale
They put everything into the toy sack
They shove in a ChryslerA
nd a TV from Sony
So hurry up and pack that
Shetland pony

The toy sack is a magical place
Where
Santa puts the presents
Toy sack Baby
This sack’s heavy
Toy sack
Break Santa’s back
Call a chiropractor
Crack Santa’s back

Lugging and tuggin
Huffin and puffin
Reachin’ in the bag
There’s an Easy-Bake Oven

Now back up the chimney
Yeah it’s straining Santa’s jimmies
That sack’s not skinny
But every year he lugs it
Around and around and around and around

Reindeer are hoofin’
There ain’t no time for goofin baby
Elves linin’ up to pack toys for your town

Bag is always movin
Somethin’s in there poopin’ baby
Puppies in the sack
There’s puppies in the sack (sing it aloud to yourselves, people. don't deny yourself)

The toy sack is a magical place
Where Santa puts the presents
Toy sack baby
Toy sack baby
Have a what?!

MerryChristmas

Toy Sack
Santa’s toy sack
Toy Sack
Santa’s Toy SackBaby
Have a Merry Christmas
That’s a lot of presents in the Toy Sack

I have started this blog in hopes that some person with enormous amounts of influence will be trolling the internet and will happen upon it and make me famous (and rich, of course... not really interested in being famous if being rich doesn't follow closely behind).

so... here goes!
