Manny Christmas

My world is dark and cold. My morals are non-existent.
 
Life had kicked my ass and threw me around a little bit.
It made me jaded.
Mean.
A grade-A asshole.
And losing my job as the starting catcher for the Atlanta Kings was the icing on the cake.
Now I was stuck in Miami all winter playing baseball with a bunch of misfits not even Santa could save. I wasn’t where I wanted to be. But I didn’t know where I wanted to go.
Leave it to the magic of Christmas to help me put things into perspective and show me the way. Not to mention giving me the gift of her.
It is just a shame it can’t be all holly and jolly. Or merry and bright.
My world is dark and cold.
My morals are non-existent.
So there won’t be a Merry Christmas for me.
Just a very…. Manny Christmas.
