Advent calendar
Dec. 16th, 2010 05:27 pmOn the sixteenth day of Christmas, slightly sunburnt from the Christmas party, the advent calendar window opened to reveal:

Damn. I used the one tooth-related Christmas song already.
OK.
"Santa has been eating lots
In the lead up to Christmas,
Hamburgers,mince pies and subs
pudding, coffee and biscuits.
How do his teeth stay straight and white?
Though he's always rushing?
He and Dasher spend every night
Making sure they're brushing.."
OK, the tune is Good King Wenceslas, which will always remain Good King Wenceslas:Masterchef to me. I love the prefect teeth that both Santa and Dasher* have, and the big, cheesy, "Guy Smiley" game-show host grins they're both wearing. And also this reminds me I need to make a dentist's appointment. Sometime in January, because there's no way it's getting done before Christmas! Nice to see the magic snow/cloud's back - and Santa's brandishing that toothbrush like a superhero determined to educate the world's children about the importance of dental hygiene. Dasher on the other hand just looks happy to be near a toothbrush. Not sure what the bell's in aid of - I'm reasonably certain 747 pilots (and others) wouldn't be able to hear them over the roar of the engines anyway...
*I've decided all the reindeer on the windows are different, and not just multiple representations of Rudolph, even with the red nose. I'll explain later...
