Santa

"Where is the north pole?" Logan asked me.

"At the top of the earth," I said, doing my best to hold on to the wheel while indicating the top of what was supposed to be a globe.

Logan, alone in the back seat, had been carrying on a conversation about "arctica" and penguins, so I figured my mid-air-invisible-faux-globe wouldn't be too much of a stretch.

I heard a small gasp.

"You mean Santa lives in space?!"

Sigh.
