On the First Day of Tripmas the Mushrooms Gave to Me…
It’s that time of year, folks. In just two short weeks, we’ll rip the plastic from our zany kitten calendars and script the screenplay for 2026. Spoiler alert: it’s another sequel in which we leg-wrestle our past, avenge our darlings, and vanquish the cartoon villains that left us tied to the railroad tracks.
It’s a time for serious introspection. For grace and patience. And to get plain old weird and revel in the joy of new beginnings. Yeah it wouldn’t be December, if I didn’t let my hair down and do some psychedelic caroling.
P.S. This jingle pairs best with earplugs and eggnog.
