Santa Gave Me This. Portland SantaCon 2010

SantaConians did their thing yesterday. Their thing, pretty much, is to dress up as Santa and drink. The more observant Santas also give gifts and address each other as “Santa”. I worked yesterday so I did not participate. I was, however, given a gift (pictured above) from Santa as I waited for my train.

A couple things about that gift:

1. It was very nicely wrapped.

2. I was told it was a “kids” gift as opposed to an “adult” gift.

If somebody dressed as Santa gives me a gift I pretty much thank them and take it. No questions asked.
