My best friend and I used to debate what kind of accident would be required to get Extreme Home Makeover to choose our apartment in NYC. If she pushed me down the stairs? If I loosened a board so she fell through into the pizza place? You don’t *want* these things to happen, but the prospect of a newly rebuilt apartment was pretty tempting. Also, we are terrible people.
Don’t pretend you didn’t consider the same.
Now the thought has crossed my mind again and I blame the Caps.
The annual Family-to-Family holiday gift presentation was yesterday. Players from the Caps, Wizards and Mystics visit families who are having a tough time and bring them Christmas cheer. It’s so darned nice, like every time a bell rings someone gives iCarly the microphone.
Look who was there! SANTA IS OBVIOUSLY REAL and he got my letter(s).
Nicky: Wait, this isn’t the nice list.
Mike: That list is boring. Next stop, WUYS offices.
Watch the adorable video here and Happy Holidays!!

There is so much love between Green and Backstrom that I think my heart is going to burst. Although I’m not a Caps fan, I’m totally a fan of them.
You should just gather up all the neighborhood kids, say they’re yours and get some hockey players to come to your house with presents.
“That list is boring. Next stop, WUYS offices.” Pants, you kill me.
Also, Brooks is perfection in this video – it’s a good thing he wasn’t captured holding a child because my brain surely would have exploded.
Chuck, are you not proximally obligated to like the Caps since your life partner is such a Green fan?
Also, let’s all golf clap at the Wizards player resting on Joel Ward’s shoulder in that photo at the end. Winner.
