Dear Darling Santa,
I hope this finds you as it leaves me: very well behaved indeed.
Yes, I've been ever so good this year. I don't shiver when I have to go to Doggie Styles. I brush my teeth daily. I never sneak into the bathroom where the toilet paper roll is left unattended (well, hardly ever). I don't beg for food (honesty compels me to add that Papa keeps me well fed, no need to beg). I bark at bad guys & I allow little children to pet me. I haven't pouted or cried. I've been a good helper all year long. For example, I guarded the next door neighbors' house when they were out of town. I taught Mama how to use her new favorite computer gadget, Dropbox. I picked up after myself. I behaved unselfishly -- as proof see the lists below for Maman et Papa; these I made up myself which shows that I take others into consideration & have empathy for their needs and desires.
All that being said, and as you can see from the photo above, I am looking for you every day and hoping that I'll see you soon. I will leave out some milk & cookies, the milk laced with brandy for it is now quite cold in Athens and your open sleigh isn't the best vehicle for winter traveling.
Here is my list:
my own TV set with remote control & wifi connection
new microfiber suede bed for my home (preferably red)
high IQ interactive puzzle doggie toys and
a Dog Dizzy interactive toy
an India rubber ball (also preferably, red)
an argyle sweater (pinks & browns)
a personalized small toy bucket
Papa's list:
a vintage Alpha Romeo (preferably champagne color)
non-stick skillet
2 or 3 good books
Gap jeans
Ray-Ban prescription sun glasses
Maman's list:
a 10-carat diamond ring set in platinum
Chanel perfume (the large size)
Shopping spree at Burberry's in London
jar of caviar (the large size)
Dear, darling Santa. I love you so much. You are my very best friend. Please bring all these items to our house on Christmas Eve!
Lots of love, your good friend Mercury Murphy Roushanzamir
PS: Here is a present for you, Dear Santa. It is an enhanced photo that I created all by myself. If you like, you can take it with you on your flight around the world on Christmas Eve. It'll be good company for you. Love, again Mercury
