Christmas in July?

.

Some years, if we’re not traveling… we spend Christmas Day with friends. They tend to have less emotional baggage than family, and are generally a lot more fun. Of course last year, Covid ruined everything about the holidays and we neither traveled nor made merry with friends. Boo to global pandemics! They’re such a buzz kill.

Our friends, being fun loving (as well as gift greedy) have decided to celebrate 2020’s lost holiday in July. (It will be a barbecue/pool party at our friend’s newly purchased house/horse farm/how the Hell is a 50 something single woman going to take care of this huge spread by herself.)

We’ve been invited and encouraged to get into the Christmas in July spirit…. so naturally I will be wearing this:

Because nothing says Ho! Ho! Ho! like Santa in a mankini.

I will also be bringing this:

A Covid themed piñata, so we can all take our frustrations over the past year out on something other than our spouses.

.

.

Yes. To all of that. And I won’t be filling it with candy, no. In honor of the shit show that was 2020 I will fill it with these:

.

What are those you ask? Only the perfect gift to give your friends in case certain items become hard to find again.

.

.

Portable toilet paper! Am I a genius or what?

.

And to further get into the Christmas spirit? I’ve purchased this 2020 totally went down the drain themed tree.

.

.

I did not however purchase the accompanying ornaments.

.

.

Tree turd danglers?

No.

.

.

Definitely, no.

  1. My wife’s name is Karen and so she disapproves of this post (she really hates the fact her name was appropriated for such nonsense). What’s even worse for me – my name is Kenneth – the long version of the shortened name Ken. ***although I don’t let it bother me ~ijs.
    In fact; it never even bothered me that my first wife’s name is Barbara, yeah- as in Barbie.

    ***
    but that being said: Those portawipes are great – I’ve had several paks in my ‘survival’ gear for a number of years now.

  4. Portable toilet paper is something I never would have thought of but the more I think about it the smarter it seems, and filling a COVID-ñata with it is absolute genius. The perfect thing to avoid danglers at any time of year.

  5. Those are great,But you really should have gotten the ornaments, I mean, you’ve gotta admit COVID is a S – – t Show! I must say, I am a bit nervous of what you got your friend as a gift, though.
