Mother Of The Year 2014

There's this NASA promo where you can fill in a form* and print a boarding pass to Orion's test flight on December.

Orion boarding pass

I printed one for Sharkteeth. I thought it would be a fun souvenir.

Well, you know the saying, "the road to perdition is paved with good intentions." I was just supposed to hand it to her.

But the devil took over. 

TPS: Hey! Look what I've got over the mail.
Sharkteeth: [excited] What is it?
TPS: NASA is sending a flight to Mars, and they sent you a ticket! You can go to Mars! Yay!
Sharkteeth: Huuuwaaaat??? Are you messing with me?
TPS: Of course not! Here, look at the ticket. It has your name on it.
Sharkteeth: [suspiciously] I don't think that's real...
TPS: Of course it's real. It has a barcode and serial number and stuff.
Sharkteeth: Stop messing with me. Besides, how can I go to Florida?
TPS: Mama Nell will pick you up and bring you to Florida...
Sharkteeth: [faltering] But, but, it's on December...how about Christmas?
TPS: I'll just give you your Christmas gift early...
Sharkteeth: I can't spend Christmas here with you?
That's when I started to think that it might not be a good idea after all...but I couldn't back out anymore... 
TPS: Maybe there's a live feed or something and we can chat.
Sharkteeth: But it won't be the same.
TPS: Oh, it's going to be fun. You in Mars. Can't beat that, right? 
Sharkteeth: You seem to be happy about this...
TPS: What if I am?
Sharkteeth: [sarcastically] Well, Merry Christmas to you!
TPS: Aren't you excited about this?
Sharkteeth: [starting to get teary-eyed] NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! How can I be excited about this?! It's Mars! It's far! It's Christmas!!!
TPS: JOOOOOOOOKKKKKE!!!
