2004 was the year I met FAQ Girl. All other events in my life pale in significance. When I think about how we met, I shake my head. It all seems so improbable. Yet, here it is, over six months later, and while we've had a few bumps in the road, we are still insanely happy together.

and sluuuttt!
Jon, you two are so cute together. A great couple! It was so fun meeting you.
2004 was the year I finally got to meet some Buffistas after lurking around for years (going back to the TT days). I treasure each and every one of you.
When I met Jon earlier this year, he told me his girlfriend was in Canada.
It sounds kind of suspicious to me...

Does she live in Alberta?
(Shit, her name is Alberta, she lives in Vancouver!)
Does she suck like a hoover?
Yes, I had to go to the most off-color place.
There was a FAQ girl from Vancouver...
Squee!!!! aurelia, part one has arrived! I love the smell of the candle and the chocolate is ALWAYS appreciated. I've never heard of Wrapsacks before; it's a wonderful idea. I'll enter my info tonight. The calendar of vintage posters is perfect! It shall replace my vintage Italian movie poster calendar on January 3d, when I again grace the office with my presence. And the penguin card! Hee!
Really, this package couldn't have come at a better time.
To my santee, I was hoping to get your gift out today, but it's looking less and less likely. I still have to wrap the sucker. It will go out Monday at the latest.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive, well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, choc. in one hand, martini in other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "Woo!"
Bless you, MFNlaw, I needed to see that.
Dear Secret Santa, at the last moment I decided to take off for upstate NY to do the snow thing. We will be gone from Dec 29 - Jan 7. If stuff is in the mail my neighbor will grab it for me.
DH decided he wanted to fly out on the 6AM flight on the 29th. He doesn't know that his surprise birthday party will keep him up late the 28th. Guess we will sleep on the plane.
I'm in frantic mode here. Dinner for a dozen or so family types on Saturday and then a party for 40 or so on Tuesday. Did I mention that I haven't shopped for anyone except the kids and my very special Buffista? The house is a pit.
cleaning now...
Poking my head to wish everybody who celebrates happy holidays, great presents (both to give and to get), good company, and in general, a good rest-of-the-week.
As for my 2004, even though that's not the way I count years - well, y'all know what's the special thing about that year was for me. You guys are responsible for that!
