I am technically on vacation this week. That means that all songs are songs for the weekend.

Most people know that I don’t like reality TV. Hate it. There are a few shows I can actually stomach (Top Chef, Runway, Design Star) and that is only when I can DVR the episode. My method of watching skills-based reality TV is to see what the challenge is, fast forward through 45 minutes of useless drama, and then see what the contestants come up with.

That being said… I love this gif:

Macy’s is having a content to design the next balloon for the Thanksgiving Day Parade. Entrants get a solid white elf to paint and submit it online. Then, people with facebook. accounts can vote for their favorite elf and the winner gets turned into a balloon for the parade.

Phillip has entered the following design for an elf he has named “Jimmy HoHo.”

• Jimmy HoHo is a little fellow with a big heart.
• He loves dressing up like a Christmas stocking,
• in hopes that Santa will fill him with treats!

From the email from Phillip: “When we entered the contest, they asked for the name and backstory for the elf.  I tried to come up with something cute and festive.  I think it might have come across as a little kinky.  My dream is to hear the parade commentators say ‘Jimmy HoHo’with a straight face.”
