After last night’s election debacle, I struggled today to find any pep in my step. I wanted to stay in bed all day, but alas, with a mortgage payment due in a couple of weeks, that wasn’t an option! I don’t have a father who has $14 million lying around to loan me at the drop of my toupee.
SOOO who you gonna call during the second week of November for a post-election pick-me-up? Santa Claus!
Yes, Virginia, he’s back. Starting November 11th, Santa will be at Arden Mall ready to chat and listen to all of the reasons you’d like something for Christmas, despite your behavior over the last year! (That may be a little projecting there!)
I’m usually the only black guy wearing a Santa hat at the mall, so if you see me there, say “Hi!”
Santa Claus arrives at Arden Mall in Sacramento on November 11, and with the exception of Thanksgiving Day, he’ll be there every day through December 24. For specific hours, and for information on his “Early Bird Online Offer” (through December 8), click here.
