Feeling the Spirit

With the events that occurred today (Jeremy lost his job), I have been overflowing with Christmas cheer. So much, in fact, that I have been compelled to compose my first Christmas Carol.






Joy to the World
(please hum along for extra cheer)

Joy to the World,
Jer got laid off!
And now he'll be Mr. Mom.
It doesn't come with a big paycheck,
but rather a gift wrapped pink slip.
After 13 years, get a severance plan,
and give your job to a China man.
We love Corporate America;
the land of the unemployed!

  1. I can relate to "Mr. Mom!" Got the "Pink Slip" a few times myself!
    Jeremy, if you ever have this talk with your kids that Jack (Michael Keaton had in the show), I'll never forgive you!!:

    "I understand that you little guys start out with your woobies and you think they’re great… and they are, they are terrific. But pretty soon, a woobie isn’t enough. You’re out on the street trying to score an electric blanket, or maybe a quilt. And the next thing you know, you’re strung out on bedspreads Ken. That’s serious."

    Get a new job and let the kids keep their "woobies!"
