Return Day

Christmas is over!  The day most people can't wait till it happens, and when it is over, they are glad it is over.  The day after Christmas is what I nick name Return Day.  The day that everyone returns all the crap, they received, that they did not want.  Lets face it, how many times have you been given a gift that you absolutely didn't want?  I remember one Christmas that a relative gave me a sweater that was the ugliest thing I have ever seen. I mean, if the Elephant man wore that sweater it would actually make him look good.  I had to wear that sweater to every family function, that year, when the weather was cold.  There is a gas station that I always stop at to fill my car with gas, and both the cashiers laughed at me because of the sweater.  I was so embarrassed when I walked out; I took the sweater off and gave it to a bum.  When I sat in my car, I got out and went over to the bum, got the sweater back, and gave him a $50 bill.  I felt so bad, I had to get it back from the bum, not because a relative gave it to me, but because it was so damn ugly.  I have a policy now, when I get something for Christmas at a family function, that I don't like, I always mail it to the White House.  So much shit that happens there, I figure it might be useful in helping someone look better.
