Letters to Santa: Jaxy Rai and Zoe Zimmerman




"I'm not fucking doing that. Sorry, Zo, but I'm not into that sort of gayass shit, okay?"

"Oh, come on. It's just like making a wish, or a prayer... if you believe in that crap. Writing it down gives it more weight. Like... it has more power."

"Like the power of The Secret?"

"Yeah, just like that."

"Fuck sakes."

"Humour me, okay. Just play along. I'll throw them away after we're done. I don't usually buy into this sort of thing either, but it couldn't hurt, right?"

"No, I guess not. I'd try anything right about now."

"Good girl. Here's your sheet."

"Thanks."





Nothing for me this year, Santa. I've already got everything I need, and I can take care of myself. As long as I have Zoe, I'll be fine.

Well, you could help me out with that whole serenity, courage, and wisdom thing. Especially the wisdom. I'll be needing that. You know, to know the difference, and all that shit.

Jaxy







Dear Santa,

Please help Jaxy get better. That's all I ask.

Thanks,
Zoe

One of my recent bosses was really into The Secret, and gave all of her staff a copy last year, so I own it. It has some truth to it, since they've found that the whole visualization/power of prayer thing does have some tangible effect, oddly enough. The way it's presented, though, is just silly. I don't have to work, I can just sit back and write it on my "vision board." It's sympathetic magic.

I'm a pretty big fan of those two lately. They're so cute in a "you better not think we're cute" sort of way.

Yeah, they're fun. I've fallen behind, but that's to be expected. I'm going to do another couple later today, which will help me catch up.
