A Letter To Santa

by Leslie

Dear Santa Claus,

Hello, my jolly friend. It’s me, Leslie. I hope you’ll remember me from my longstanding status on the “nice” list.

It’s been a long time since I’ve written you with a request for Christmas, but I haven’t wanted something this badly since the Barbie Townhouse you brought me in 1985.

Normally, I would admit to wanting a mom-related gift, like this griddle that would enable me to bring scrumptious pancakes and delicious quesadillas to the family table at record speed. And if I were to receive a gift such as this, I would graciously use it to its fullest potential. But, Santa, I must be honest, I want something else more.

I would like the music video game Guitar Hero for Playstation 2. (You can buy it here.)

Apparently Guitar Hero has been out for while (one year and three weeks according to my research), but somehow slipped by me. I can’t help but feel as though I’ve been living in darkness while the rest of the world has been basking in the light of the greatest game ever created.

Santa, do you realize how awesome this game is?

Here are a few of the songs I could rock out to with this gift:

“I Love Rock & Roll” by Joan Jett and The Blackhearts
“Symphony of Destruction” by Megadeath
“Iron Man” by Black Sabbath

and

Are you ready for this?

“MORE THAN A FEELING” by BOSTON…the greatest song of all time.

Santa, I need this.

And if you bring me two Mini Gibson SG controllers, you can come and rock with me anytime.

Santa, I’m depending on you. This gift seems much too frivolous to request from my husband, or even my parents. If you bring it, it will be like a Christmas miracle. And miracles can’t be returned. And they must be used. It’s Christmas law.

I’d like to thank you in advance, as I have the utmost faith in you, Dear Santa.

Sincerely,

Leslie
Julia’s Mommy

8 Cool Kids Came To Play

Leslie can I just say you are awesome…completely and totally awesome. I love this post! And you have fantabulous taste in music.

That does look rather fun, I’ve been watching the commercials lately. Though I really want to play the Wii (even if Josh says it’s retarded) the martial arts sword fighting one just looks like too much fun not to try.

And they have the sports ones! As soon as that comes down in price, I’m buying it!

I Love Rock & Roll by Joan Jett

Now that’s a song for Friday night when you can finally kick back and relax…wait, we can never because we have kids.

I’m going to have to get me a letter to Santa! I want a new bathroom, a furnace and other things homeowners never seem to be able to afford!

You got a Barbie Townhouse? Santa never brought me one of those!

Um, seriously? I LOVE that game. We have it and I play it all the time. Did you know that Guitar Hero 2 just came out? It’s on my list along with a second guitar so that my husband and I can play at the same time instead of having to trade off turns. I hope you get the game, and I’m sure you’ll love it.

I saw those somewhere last week. Hopefully Santa will bring one for you!

Me, personally, I want a laptop…I guess I should write a letter huh?

That one slipped past me, too. How cool!

In college, I scrimped and saved $100 to purchase myself a guitar at a pawn shop. I gave it away a few years ago, but I have not entirely given-up my rock star fantasties. Not by a long shot. Maybe this is my ticket!

Me too! Santa, me too! (Never heard about this game before, but now I really want it…)

I still have my old Fender, and an acoustic… I don’t think I’ll ever grow out of them…
