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.

Congrats, Rio!

I'm in the super duper slacker santa category and hope get something out the door later this week so it'll arrive before New Year's.

Punishingly Intricate

I'm just in the regular slacker category but I still won't get to the P.O. before Thursday. For I am lame. Also need to pick up another part of the present.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I finally have all the components, but haven't even assembled them yet. It'll probably go out Thursday morning, now.

THANK YOU to my mysterious seekrit santa who sent me a beautiful Navajo sand painting. I love it!

Also, thank you Deb for the ginger cake, which arrived today. Yummmm!

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

Oh good, it got there! Glad your sweetie is safe at home, Kristin.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I got a wonderful box of gifts from Dani (who happened to be the recipient of the first Sekrit Santa gift I ever sent!). There's a calendar with knitting patterns--it's one I've actually thought about buying a few times, so excellent choice! There's a jar of lime marmalade, some sinful looking cookies, and an adorable little blank book.

Thank you so much!

Always Anti-fascist!

It was I, Kristin. I inadvertently compounded the mystery to save on shipping. Yes, it's a conspiracy. I thought there were not many Navajos in CT, though, so it would be unique for you.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

My Sekrit Santa gift arrived--chocolate, a ship's wheel keychain, and an awesome scholarly anthology on the Age of Sail from Tom Scola. Thanks, Tom! The book is perfect.

(My third novel, which is still in the early planning stages while I write the second one, is going to be set in the Royal Navy circa 1800. So I'm starting to accumulate a collection.)

Yay! It arrived exactly when the machine told me it would!

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

Yay! It arrived exactly when the machine told me it would!

It seems like this needs a t /Zoidberg after it.
