Light On Dark Water

I know, that sounds like the title of some sleazy Playboy feature. But what I mean is: what a great amount of work the women of the world do to make the Christmas holidays what they are, and what a great deal of appreciation they deserve for it. All the shopping and cooking and decorating and planning…yes, many of the men who live with these women sometimes quietly wonder if they aren’t overdoing it a bit. But in the end, ladies, we’re glad you do it, and hope you didn’t work so hard that you didn’t get to enjoy any of it. Here’s a toast to you. If we were left to our own devices very few people would receive cards or gifts, and we’d probably all end up alone at Christmas, eating leftover pizza and drinking beer and watching old action movies on tv.

(Which actually sounds pretty nice—but come on—not on Christmas Day.)
