Under The Tree

Tree

So last night Kristin and I went to see the movie “Australia” with some friends.  Unfortunately, the surround sound wasn’t working so it was crazy soft for the first thirty minutes.  Then the surround sound started popping like crazy.  Then we decided it was time to leave.

So we decided to walk around downtown Sarasota.  As we approached the large Main Street Christmas tree we realized that it had fallen over.  Realizing that this was an opportunity for something, we tried to figure out what.  Then in a stroke of pure genius I decided to wedge myself under the tree so that perhaps passers-by would think that it had fallen on me.  Today, Kristin and I are going to get our tree.  I’ll let you know how that goes.

    No way i saw you there last night and was so surprised and frightened for your pea pick-in life.
    Christmas tree’s can be dangerous. there wasn’t one in the manger.
    perhaps a homeless man picking his feet, or some locked out guy, girlfriend has keys, wallet??
    What?
    You two are awesome and blessed!

    2 posts in one day? i am completely beside myself. i don’t know how to respond.

    for starters… i miss your wife. i miss you. but mostly your wife.

    and also, i hope that your excuse for not blogging was because you have been stuck under this tree and the officials haven’t been able to rescue you. thank you.

    What ever it takes to get you blogging again, although if you would have put Kristin under the fallen tree with you, that would have made a real conversation piece of a Christmas card photo!

    Chris,

    DO NOT go fake next year. Please. You can get things straightened out…

    Nope, already done and decided. Too much money for something that dies in a month. My cat wasn’t as much as the tree and is still alive. Pre-lit here I come. Tradition be damned!
