On the 4th Day of Christmas, The Gift of Song for Thee

I have Jenn over at "Christmas Cabbages" to thank for this post.   I was going to buy more virtual gifts but I noticed my credit card was maxed out.  I'm sure this is because of Hubby's gift purchases for me.

Today, we have a game to play.  It's easy.  Fill in the blanks using the words from Christmas song titles.


There's too much _______ up north and in Europe. Travelers are upset because they may not be _____ for Christmas and that Santa cannot come into ______. There was an incident at the London airport where one stranded traveler punched a guy for singing _____________.

It doesn't feel like Christmas as it has been warm here and it's not because of _____ roasting over an open fire.

It's also allergy season. I resemble poor _____ with the ____ nose but by this weekend I'll be ____ because of colder weather.

When I was a wee tyke, I saw Momma ______ing Santa Claus. I had come downstairs to remind her that I wanted to be a drummer. Momma said a boy played a drum for the baby Jesus in the hangar. (I think Momma meant manger. She'd been drinking). On Christmas, Momma and Daddy disappeared into their bedroom while I watched The Christmas Story. Momma must have been praying because I kept hearing her shout "Jesus". "Howlay", and someone name "Louyah" must have needed a lot of blessing.


I look forward to seeing your answers in the comments.  Feel free to make up something.  The sillier the better.


Also, Evil Twin wanted to let you know that she found the perfect gift for anyone that shares a bed with another person...or a pet:


MERRY CHRISTMAS!

OK, I need to get to work on the Christmas mad-lib, but in the meantime, The "Marriage Blanket?" BRILLIANT!! LOL!

MrsBlogAlot said...

I got very distracted by the Marriage Blanket. (which I must purchase....thanks ET!) But when I came back to fill in the blanks all I could think of was gas -which fit rather nicely in several of those spots but I couldn't ruin a great holiday story that way. (-:

Suzanne said...

I'm at work, is it okay to open that Marriage Blanket link here or should I wait until I get home?

What's with all the mind bending games? My brain is fried because of all the baking, shopping and lack of sleep. I'll let some one else win the prizes. There are prizes right?

Should I do this before or after my morning DDP? hee hee

too much ZOMBIES (too many zombies)
they may not be ZOMBIFIED
Santa cannot come into the ZOMBIE SHELTER (plenty of DDP).
singing BITE THEY TOLD HIM, RA PA PA PA PUM.
because of BRAINZ roasting
resemble poor ZACH THE ZOMBIE with the BITTEN OFF nose
I'll be ZOMBIED because of cold
I saw Momma BITING Santa Claus


So there ya have it?

Where do I pick up my prize? hee hee

ReformingGeek said...

@Joan - Hee Hee. Oops. Excuse me. Where IS that blanket?

@Mrsblogalot - Gas would be perfect for those blanks.

@Sue - It's not that bad, just funny.
Be careful. Quirky will eat your fried brain for dinner.

@Quirky - Great job with the blanks. Poor Santa may need a tetanus shot.

I've rehired the elves. Maybe I can get them to make me some prizes!

I just had to play:

There's too much REINDEER POOP up north and in Europe. Travelers are upset because they may not be DRUNK ENOUGH for Christmas and that Santa cannot come into THE AIRPORT PUB BECAUSE HE'S BEEN THROWN OUT THERE BEFORE. There was an incident at the London airport where one stranded traveler punched a guy for singing DURING A PAT DOWN.

It doesn't feel like Christmas as it has been warm here and it's not because of REINDEER NUTS roasting over an open fire.

It's also allergy season. I resemble poor CHARLIE SHEEN with the WHITE POWDER UP HIS nose but by this weekend I'll be LEAVING L.A., SINCE I'M BIPOLAR, AND HEADING UP NORTH because of colder weather.

When I was a wee tyke, I saw Momma SHARING A PIPE WITH Santa Claus. I had come downstairs to remind her that I wanted to be a drummer. Momma said a boy played a drum for the baby Jesus in the hangar. (I think Momma meant manger. She'd been drinking). On Christmas, Momma and Daddy disappeared into their bedroom while I watched The Christmas Story. Momma must have been praying because I kept hearing her shout "Jesus". "Howlay", and someone name "Louyah" must have needed a lot of blessing.

Marissa said...

Wow. The Anti-Fart blanket. I'd hate to be quality-control tester for those.

ReformingGeek said...

@Lauren - EXCELLENT! BRAVO!

@Marissa - Bring a mask!

Random Chick said...

AWESOME! Here goes:

There's too much BARF up north and in Europe. Travelers are upset because they may not be NAUSEATED for Christmas and that Santa cannot come into THE BATHROOM BECAUSE HE'S GOTTEN TOO FAT THIS YEAR. There was an incident at the London airport where one stranded traveler punched a guy for singing TINY DANCER WEARING A TUTU.

It doesn't feel like Christmas as it has been warm here and it's not because of WEENIES roasting over an open fire.

It's also allergy season. I resemble poor BILL CLINTON with the BIG FAT RED nose but by this weekend I'll be DRUNK because of colder weather.

When I was a wee tyke, I saw Momma PUNCHing Santa Claus. I had come downstairs to remind her that I wanted to be a drummer. Momma said a boy played a drum for the baby Jesus in the hangar. (I think Momma meant manger. She'd been drinking). On Christmas, Momma and Daddy disappeared into their bedroom while I watched The Christmas Story. Momma must have been praying because I kept hearing her shout "Jesus". "Howlay", and someone name "Louyah" must have needed a lot of blessing.

There's too much drinking going on up north and in Europe. Travelers are upset because they may not be completely blind drunk for Christmas and that Santa cannot come into the military because he's jolly, but not gay. There was an incident at the London airport where one stranded traveler punched a guy for singing Debbie Boone songs. Nobody likes Light Up My Life.

It doesn't feel like Christmas as it has been warm here and it's not because of a rack of lamb roasting over an open fire.

It's also allergy season. I resemble poor Jimmy Durante with the honkin' nose but by this weekend I'll be blind drunk on gin because of colder weather and the relatives.

When I was a wee tyke, I saw Momma kissing Santa Claus. And one of his elves. It was very disturbing, which is why I drink so much at the holidays.

ReformingGeek said...

@Random - Beautifully gross! Poor Santa got punched. Hee Hee.

@Mike - Put down the bottle, Mike. I think you're seeing doubles. Jolly indeed. ;-)

You guys think I have a drinking problem? Uh oh.

Diane J. said...

LOL, oh my gosh the Better Marriage Blanket. My marriage needs a Better Marriage Pillow. It would catch snores so I wouldn't have to smack and kick my husband all night long...and I would get a full night's sleep, ahhhhh.

Have a Merry Christmas!

Tgoette said...

Loving the Anti-Fart blanket. Now if they only had anti-fart pants, I'd be a lot more popular!

Merry Christmas Reffie!

honeypiehorse said...

Oooh, Xmas ad libs!

Jean Knee said...

I think they do have charcoal lined underwear for the farter in your life.

Deb said...

You want me to think after those rum balls you sent? Are you kidding?

Hiccup!

ReformingGeek said...

@Diane J - I need the pillow for my garlic breath!

@Tom - So they call you farty pants?

@honeypiehorse - Amen.

@Jean - I bet it's scratchy.

@Deb - There will be no thinking on this blog after eating rumballs or drinking eggnog. Belch. Hiccup.
