Bad Santa

Ah, Christmas. A time for emotional eating, bickering with siblings, and getting sloshed on spiked egg nog. You're not alone, and author Augusten Burroughs wants you to know that. The hilarious scribe of "Running With Scissors" has now written the perfect stocking stuffer, "You Better Not Cry," a collection of yuletide essays that'll have you reminiscing about the good old days when Santa cam down the chimney -- even in Miami. Burroughs will be at Books and Books tonight for some seriously sidesplitting storytelling. 8 P.M.

          About the Authors

          GINGER HARRIS

          Ginger loved dressing up in frilly frocks and fancy shoes as a kid. Now she's added shopping and beauty products to her list of loves. If you want to find her about town, look for her at vintage boutiques and beauty counters.

          SYDNEY KLEIN

          Sydney is a Miami native, vintage-everything junkie, eggs Benedict connoisseur and a full-time writer. Her favorite spots to shop vintage are Midtown Consignment and a little hole-in-the-wall on N.E. 2nd Ave. which she’ll keep to herself.

          JESSICA SICK

          Jessica is a current NBCMiami editor and a former DailyCandy Miami editor. Despite growing up in Miami, she does not enjoy long walks on the beach. She'd rather be spending her time buying stuff she probably doesn't need but sure makes her look darn cute.

          ANNIE VAZQUEZ

          Annie is a shop-a-holic like her mama and relishes chocolate anything. The Cuban-American journalist has wrestled an alligator, flown a Cessna to get over her fear of flying and been the first woman to ride an Indy car as a passenger, yet she finds her biggest adrenaline rush from hitting up stores with sales.
