Entry 28:

Boxing Day. Today is the day reserved for beating up total strangers. Not just any strangers, but the ones still wearing Christmas hats, Santa suits, or anything even remotely Christmassy. Christmas was yesterday, freaks, get with the program! That's why Boxing Day was invented! At least that's my theory. For the last few years, Skink has been paying me to put up Christmas lights and decorations outside his house, then take them down again when it's all over and done with. Well, I did a job worthy of the Christmas Elves the first couple of times, but this year I got to thinking... Skink doesn't leave his house, so he's not going to see all this effort I'm expending on his behalf. And the closest his neighbors get to making things look christmassy is setting fire to their trash-cans. So I thought to heck with it, I'll stick a wreath on his door and plug a night-light into his patio outlet. I'm just off now to "take down his decorations" so he doesn't get the crap beat outta him. -CG.
