So now I'm home. It's nice to not have to do so much work, and I've yet to find a time tat it's been overly difficult to occupy myself. I actually feel busy. So it's not as bad as I thought it might be. We'll see how the future turns out.

Anyway, here is my account of an interesting event of today.

The Bank of St. Nicholas

Today my brother and I decided we should probably go get some stuff for our relatives, being Christmas and all. But we wouldn't be getting money from them until Christmas, so we needed another way to fund our little gift-getting expedition, so we gathered a couple jars of change we had that were given to us as an "I don't want to deal with this, you take it" gift. We were gonna just take it to the mall and dump it on the counter of Carson Parie Scott yelling "What can I get for this much?", but decided that attempting to count out 1748 pennies might make the line of people behind us angry enough to form a collaborative effort to murder us. So we hit up the bank.

We got to the bank and went up to a teller. Lo and behold, standing right next to us was none other than good ol' St. Nick! We were starstruck. I wanted so badly to ask him to tell me the true meaing of Christmas, but I just couldn't speak. He gave a good "Ho Ho Ho!" as he saw us walking to the counter lugging 2 giant jars of change. He had the fat and the beard, the bald head, everything but the suit. But we realized that Santa probaly only wears that red suit in cartoons cause it is more cartoony. The real Santa wears western business attire, but that would frighten children. Business men are scary.

Standing next to him, it was easy to determine why he was there. He had just attempted to withdraw $5000. Obviously, the elves were under quota and he needed to do some last minute shopping.

However, the bank had run out of $100 bills due to the Holiday Season, and had to pay Santa in 20's. This was apparently an outrage. Santa began to verbally attack the mild mannered teller and threatened a lawsuit. He seemed to have some sort of legal reason to sue them, but I couldn't hear it.

My inner child was crying too loudly at what a dick Santa is.
