"And what is the true meaning of Santa?"

He smiled. "Santa is the belief that, even in the darkest hours — whether that be winter's depths, or poverty, or invading Romans — even then, there is benevolence. That there is a person, a saint, a god, out there somewhere, that is kind and giving and good. And that this goodness comes to you, when you are good to each other."

So. I too this online health assessment thinger that they'd like me to take for work. The results were something like: Dear [Name], you are fat and depressed. If you would lose some damn weight and be happy, you wouldn't be fat OR depressed. Ok? Great. Oh. Yeah, and eat more expensive food. Good job wearing your seatbelt and not smoking though.
Gee. That's all I need to do? Gosh, I never thought that losing weight would make me less fat. And that I could be not depressed by simply being happy. It's so easy! Thank you, internet health survey!

Those things are FUN! I stood in the bathroom amusing myself by opening the nursing flap and playing peek-a-boo. Flap up, then down, exclaim 'Booby', giggle, repeat. Good times!

"Twirl" is a fun word to say. It feels lovely in the mouth, like lime gelato. Try it. "Twirl." "Twirl." Mmmm…yummy.

Context has just finished a wonderful bit of storytelling by Ursula.
