I’m sure everyone has heard that song ‘My Grown-Up Christmas List’. Well, here’s mine, minus the sappy singing:

1. That Mrs. Sip and her gaggle of friends had calendar malfunctions, so they couldn’t book up every waking minute of my time.
2. A parking permit for areas around Girl Sip’s school. Hell, let’s make it a universal parking pass. Seriously, if such an item existed, I’d have to at least consider purchasing it, regardless of cost.
3. An extra half hour every morning for Mrs. Sip to get ready… but it probably still wouldn’t be enough.
4. That the Vancouver Canucks were either good or bad, but not both.
5. Peace on earth… A mute button for the Sipplings. Yeah, I like that better.
6. A censor for my swearing.
7. For all automatic sinks, soap dispensers, paper towel distributors, etc. to actually work.
8. Finally, give me a reunion special or series of Married with Children. Surely, Al Bundy would STILL be a shoe salesman!
