Well, thanks largely to the generosity of a certain Timothy, I am fortunately with a functional laptop again and my files are recovered and happily backed up! My sanity thanks you!
Well, its that time of the year again; temperatures are falling... cheeks are rosy... hot chocolate and cider are back in vogue... my boyfriend is gushing over his acquired discount ribbons and wrapping paper... So, I figure it is time for a little bit more Holiday Storytelling!
This time our story comes from the intersection of Commerce, Culture, and Christmas and may be familiar to some of you who share a common love of all things David Sedaris. This story is arguably the work that catapulted David's career and has made him a popular comic writer and (nearly) household name. SantaLand Diaries chronicles David's brief stint as a commercial elf, working at Macy's.
Length: 20:25
Original Show: #47 Christmas and Commerce PART 1
