There's nobody to give me presents anymore. I don't have a family left to celebrate the holiday with, no friends either. I barely decorate.

But there's still one thing from my childhood I still try to honor and that's having a stocking of candy. If not, small gifts.

I'm old fashioned I get myself an eight ball on Christmas Eve and one tall hooker dressed like Mrs. Claus and one short one dressed like an elf.

So traditional it's like a Norman Rockwell painting.

I think that's where I got it from.

Is it only a joke? I tried finding the painting and failed haha :)
