Almost 2 AM and just home. After a nice day around the house with a little attempted shopping Diane and I went over to our friends Bonnie and Chris’s for a really lovely party. We got home about 930\u2026 My friend John came in from Waterbury pick me up and both dressed as Santa as we headed down to Burlington\ufffc. This was both of our second “santarchys” . It’s a worldwide event where people dressed as Santa is go from bar to bar. The Burlington event started at seven\u2026 We got to town roughly 1000\u2026 So we walked around all of town and stuck her head in basically every bar and ask people if they had seen a whole bunch of Santas. We got various clues “they were here 10 minutes ago”\u2026 “They headed down the street\ufffc\ufffc”.<\/p>\n

What was funny is that I was wearing my blinking Santa hat\u2026 So many people came up and talk to me. It was so wonderful because I look enough like Santa that it brings out the kid and everyone. I could look right into their souls and I’ll tell you that most of them were really good.\ufffc!<\/p>\n

It was a pure joy to bring that kind of joy to other people\ufffc<\/p>\n

Around 1130 we actually ran into a bunch of other Santas who had just been abandoned by the Major group. We followed them up to club metronome\u2026 Which was really fun. Then we were leaving and we ran into Chris and Kim\u2026 And we went back in to nectar’s to hear a fish cover band. Then our housemate Kyle and Hunter called us and they were back up at metronome\u2026 So it was about 130 before we left\ufffc<\/p>\n

Such a great time!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nite all, nite Sam<\/p>\n
