Dear Santa...

How much of a hassle would it be to dump a few tons of snow on top of my house for Christmas?

You see, I dealt with snow for the majority of my 26 years in existence and I grew so tired of the shoveling, depending on the sand and plow trucks, the dirty snow banks, and the stress of maneuvering a vehicle on snowy roads. When I came to Florida, I vowed I would never again deal with New England and its five plus months of winter. Five years later, I still haven't. But Christmas never seems like Christmas without a little bit of snow. And now, as New England braces for some serious snowfall, I can't help but be a tiny bit jealous.

I know it's a lot to ask, but cuddling up under blankets lit only by lights on the tree while the snow falls outside would make Christmas perfect. And by the next day, it would be all melted! No shoveling or plowing. No dirty snowbanks leftover. Plus, the ground would get some much needed moisture. It would be ideal, really.

So whaddya say Jolly Pants? See if you can work a deal with Mother Nature for me and divert some of that snow this way. I don't think New England would really mind.

P.S. I've been reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally good this year. For real this time. C'mon! I even quit smoking!
