when I was about 4 years old my family moved from Texas to Virginia. We moved Christmas eve, and my mom told me that once we got to Virginia I'd see beautiful snow on all the trees. I had this vision of enormous trees covered in pink fluff, maybe even adorned with ornaments (I'd never seen snow in Texas). Once mom announced that we were in Virginia and I saw these towering evergreens covered in plain old white, I cried bitter tears of resentment, repeating, "this can't be Virginia, there are no pink Christmas trees!"
