Mom lets you in on the “true” carols!

Okay – how many of you realize that the only reason you’re holding it together at all this Holiday season is because of some fantabulous medications that keep you “level-headed“, “in good spirits” or “in state of cool and calm“? I have to admit that most of my “Holiday Cheer” is the by-product of some very potent Anti-Depressants, Anti-Anxiety and Mood Enhancers that have been prescribed to me. Yes – this is the age of “happiness in a bottle“.
But let’s be honest – wouldn’t you rather have us just a tad ‘doped up’and happy than bitter, vengeful and spending each waking moment finding fault and something to bitch about? I know that the people around me – including the rare actual family member I have contact with – are ecstatic about my “controlled” demeanor.
Wouldn’t it be fun if we took everyone’s neurosis and applied it to a well known Holiday songs? Let’s see what we come up with, shall we?
Agoraphobia: I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day But Wouldn’t Leave My House
Amnesia: I Don’t Know If I’ll Be Home For Christmas
