Okay, there are two things that|l remember about my childhood.
l just dont remember|it being this orange.
First, l remember|being with my dad.
He would get these far-off looks|in his eye, and he would say,
Life doesnt always turn out|the way you plan.
l just wish l realized at the time|he was talking about my life.
But that never stopped us from|taking our adventures together.
He would pack up|our sometimes-working car,
and he would tell me|amazing stories...
about strange|and exotic lands...
as we headed off to|exciting destinations like...
Milwaukee.
lts amazing how exotic|Wisconsin... isnt.
But my favorite memories|were the stories...
that he would tell me|about my mom.
He would take me to the church|where they got married...
and ld beg him to tell me more|about the ceremony...
and about|my crazy Uncle lrwin...
who fell asleep|in the macaroni and cheese.
And l asked my dad|when he knew...
that he truly loved my mom.
And he said to me,|Lucy, your mother...
gave me a special gift.
She gave me the world.
Actually it was a globe|with a light in it.
But for the romantic that he was,|it might as well have been the world.
Well, the first time|l saw him,
he didnt exactly|give me the world.
lt was a $1.50 train token.
Uh, but l-l looked forward to it|every single day.
He started coming to my booth|between 8:01 and 8:15...
every morning,|Monday through Friday.
And he was just perfect.|My Prince Charming.
Well, weve nev-- Weve|never actually spoken.
But l know someday we will.|l know it. l just know it.
And l know that someday l will|find a way to introduce myself,
and, and thats|gonna be perfect.
Just like my prince.
Forty-five dollars for a Christmas tree|and they dont deliver?
You order $10 worth of chow mein from|Mr. Wongs, they bring it to your door.
Oh! Ooh, l shouldve gotten the|blue spruce. Theyre lighter.
Aah! Ooh.
Lucy!
Nature of claim:
|Christmas tree through window.H-How am l gonna put that on my|insurance? Theyre still pissed...
about the fire we had when Joe|Jr. barbecued in the stairwell.
- l missed that one.|- Oh, great sausage.
- Look, l-lll pay for this.|- Thats okay, Lucy.
My brother Julies|in the glass business.
Oh... l almost forgot.
Merry Christmas.
Ah, Lucy. You, you|didnt have to do that.
- Well, l wanted to.|- l havent even gotten|to my shopping yet.
Hey, Pop. Could l give that|bottle of Blue Nun you got...
from Cousin Ornella|to my probation officer?
Do you see weve got|some company?
- Say hello.|- Hello, Luce.

- Lucy! Lucy, Lucy, Lucy.|- Hi, Jerry.
- lm glad to find you here.|- l was hoping youd find me in Bermuda.
Bermuda?|Oh, thats good.
l am recommending you|for Employee of the Month.
The usual.
- Really? l didnt know there|was an employee of the month.|- Oh, yeah.
Supervisor Jerry Wallace|nominates Lucy Moderatz...
for Employee of the Month.
Lucy is never tardy,|always works holidays...
even if she has worked|the previous holiday.
Just because she worked Thanksgiving,|Lucy is willing to work Christmas too?
Jerry, lm not|working Christmas.
- Ah, youll get a nice plaque|with the mayors stamp on it.|- l didnt vote.
- You get to ride on a float|St. Paddys day.|- l hate parades.
- Did l mention extra holiday pay?|- l hate you.
Lucy.
Look, Violet is sick|and Celeste cant switch...
because shes got some|big family thing.
And l promised my kids|ld be there for them this year.
- lt stinks, Jerry.|- l know it isnt fair,|and l cant make you do it.
But, Lucy, youre the only one--
Without family.
