May your Christmas be the best ever!
One of my pet peeves (nemesis) happens to be these things that
come inside magazines--some attached--some loose so they can
fall out--so stiff you can hardly turn the pages and if you get it
turned it won't stay open without you holding it. That little piece
of stiff postcard type whacha-m-callit really bugs me--that and
coat hangers. I don't know which I dislike most--both are crowd-
ing each other for the top of the list. Of course coat hangers are
almost indispensable and you can use the postcard things as book-
marks--so it may be teaching me tolerance or patience. So I guess
it's OK.
