worse than the deer

i have something i need to get off my chest. it's a serious problem. and i've seen it primarily in the evansville area. i blame the large population of hillbillies. but whatever the case...amber...if you're reading this.....this is far more serious than the case of the ponchos.

it's the giant inflatable christmas animals. you know....those huge balloon like things that are blown up from the inside...they're seriously 10 feet tall and about 4 feet wide. and in evansville....that's not only taking up your ENTIRE front yard, but part of your neighbor's as well. seriously people...what is it about these things? they are soooo tacky. and it's bad enough to have ONE of them, but i've seen houses with a whole colony living in the front yard. it's like they had to buy every christmas character known to man and then throw them all together like some kind of Christmas family.

there is actually a person living here in copper creek with one of these things on their yard. and we dont even HAVE yards. it's right outside their balcony on the 3 foot patch of grass in front of the parking lot. it's a giant sleigh with like 4 reindeer taking a ride in it and looking all wild like they're on crack or something.

oh my GOD. i could just sit here and express my horror all night. im sorry if anyone reading has one of these things...but good LORD people. for the love of all that is holy.....if you're going to put something on your lawn....at LEAST make it life-size. Giant 10-foot-tall snowmen and mrs. clause's just dont make any sense. especially not in COMBINATION. i never thought i would say this, but i actually miss the days when everyone had those ugly deer that lit up.

well i guess thats it. i've gotta get to bed so i can wake up early and get my 20 page paper done! still havent finished the 300 page book i have to read for it. and it's due wednesday. i HATE school. i hate it i hate it i hate it.
