Goodbye and Good Riddance 2004: Well, I Wasn't Expecting That.  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2004? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

Huh. Yep. I didn't look all that close at the envelope. It's from Not!Deena. The address is in Ohio, but the postmark is Oakland (California, that is).

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Mine's the same. Address in Ohio, postmark Oakland.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I know where Libkitty gets her shiny silver envelopes!

I was kicking myself about the return address the day I sent the package, only after it was gone, so too late to do anything about it. I could have covered it up with the tape. Feh.

Seekrit to Sparky: On the other hand, it has been loads of fun posting with you the last few days, knowing. :=)

And if you really want to open it early, it's okay by me.

Art Crawl!!!

Mine were also from Not!Deena -- same thing -- return address OH, postmarked Cali.

Thank you Not!Deena and whoever the Sooper Seekrit Buffista Cards Organization is.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I'm hurt. Hurt, I tell you.

"No one ever comes to visit LA."

So, what, that dinner at Gardens of Taxco, like two months ago, was what? Imaginary pollo con crema?

Like I said, I just enjoy the taste of my own feet.

Plus, selfish.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Everybody comes to visit you guys. We're lonely down here. Plus, some LAistaistas are or have moved out of town, so some visits this way would be nice, especially one from SA.

Pfft. You had DebetEsse and you let her get away. What sane person would allow DebetEsse to get away? It's not like you don't know where to buy manacles. Shear carelessness. You can't be trusted with such important matters.

Heh. You do know that was tongue in cheek, right?

Plus, selfish.

Hey, me too!

(note to self - must go visit SF soon)

That would be yes.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Yes, big thanks to Not!Deena. My return address and the postmark were the same, and they absolutely made my week.
