The Nightmare before Christmas

Twas a couple weeks before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was stirring except for the Payne family mouse. All the stockings were hung by the food storage closet door with care in the hopes that Saint Obama Claus soon would be there.

(Scraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatch the record)


Say what?!

You heard me. Obama Claus!
The other night I woke up from a horrible dream. Obama wanted to give everyone in America a bicycle for Christmas and the Payne family had to buy them.
The voice in my nightmare went like this,
"Obama is giving everyone a bicycle for Christmas and it's YOUR turn to pay."
The Payne Family is going to pay for other people's healthcare, abortions, and failed businesses, but bicycles?!
Mr. President Elect, that's where I draw the line.

  1. Are you sure that was just a dream? You may have had a vision of the future.

    My middle child thinks we should have voted for Santa for president.

  4. Whoa there! I do not need another bicycle anymore than you need to pay for it.

    I had a nightmare, too. It was hiding from government people. The fact that I was sick on anti nausea medication may or may not have had something to do with it.

    Just the same. I feel for ya there.

  6. everyone should have a bicycle, indeed.
    i have 4 really nice ones in my garage-
    Obama would think me wrong and take 3 away because "we've" GOT to "spread the wealth" - only a dream?
    i wish.

    nope.
    you, Mrs. Payne, don't get to decide where the line is drawn-

    Big Brother is in charge, and don't you forget it!

  11. Don't forget helmets, because when I fall off of my new bike, I'm going to sue you. Head injuries are expensive.

  14. You and I need to compare notes on our crazy dreams. Seriously. I started to share a few in this comment but I don't want to reveal just how crazy they can get. Good thing I am completely sane when awake. :-)
