For: Day 11: Christmas tree fail.
The crash was inevitable.
It was the first year in many my employer had elected not to grace another’s residence with his presence at Christmastime. He’d consented to a New Year’s Mediterranean holiday as well as donating his Sugar Plum Fairy braces to the deserving poor, and thus I was compelled to assent to his request for a fir.
I’d stepped to the kitchen at the kettle’s whistle.
CRASH!
I raced to the sitting room and discovered the tree and my employer horizontal, the former atop the latter.
“Sometimes you deck the halls, Jeeves, and sometimes the halls deck you!”
