reindeers everywhere... christmas preparations part IV

the closer the end of the year is coming, i think the more insane and imaginative people get. for example they start to believe in magical things like santa, reindeers and love. because everyone wants to believe in something.

well, for me it's different: beliefs i've had forever turned out to actually be reality. did you know reindeers actually exist? i honestly thought they were just a mythical creature. maybe because i almost ever only saw them in cartoons or animated versions. now of course i think i'm totally stupid for not knowing... especially since i so love deer, so i should have known reindeers exist. sorry, santa, i never meant to hurt you.

so yes, it's been a week of revised beliefs, and reindeers, obviously. here's the elaborate proof of my reindeer encounters.

1 i discovered this 'the super dooper raindeer pooper' candy machine in a candy store. ugh, gross! and not actually a really good reindeer existence proof, if i think about it...

2 the (rein)deer i got from my 'wichtel' (we do that 'secret santa' stuff at the agency...) this week. it looks so smug.

3 footsteps of a reindeer on the street. i must have missed it by a hair... duh, too bad, really.

4 cloudy early morning skies over zurich. i'm obsessed with cloudy skies. and i swear i've even seen a reindeer fly away. right there! sorry the pictures are a bit blurry, but if you're really good, you can actually see one flying away in one of the pictures. no kidding.

if this is still not enough proof to you then let me tell you that i even saw a real reindeer fur last week. admittedly not on a living reindeer... but a very pretty 'dead' one in an interior shop. and wow, it must have been one of the prettiest furs i've ever seen! i desperately want one! to stroke and to hug and to lay my head on. how bad does that make me? anyway...

out of political (and furry) correctness, i won't post one just here (for the moment). all this simply must be evidence enough and to spare for you that reindeers exist, right? in any case: do come back, as i will be making sure to stay close on their, uhm, heels during the next few days or so before christmas.

reindeer love,
